directional supervision element and the integrated directional
comparison function.
The protection has integrated directional feature. As the operating quantity current lop
is always used. The polarizing method is determined by the parameter setting
polMethod . The polarizing quantity will be selected by the function in one of the
following three ways:
1. When polMethod = Voltage , UPol will be used as polarizing quantity.
2. When polMethod = Current , IPol will be used as polarizing quantity.
3. When polMethod = Dual , UPol + IPol · ZNPol will be used as polarizing quantity.
The operating and polarizing quantity are then used inside the directional element, as
shown in figure
165 , in order to determine the direction of the earth fault.
