However, depending upon the setting of the MOV, the fault current will have a resistive
component.

The problems described here are accentuated with a three phase or phase-to-phase
fault, but the negative fault current can also exist for a single-phase fault. The condition
for a negative current in case of an ground fault can be written as follows:

All designations relates to figure
. A good protection system must be able to cope
with both positive and negative direction of the fault current, if such conditions can
occur. A distance protection cannot operate for negative fault current. The directional
element gives the wrong direction. Therefore, if a problem with negative fault current
exists, distance protection is not a suitable solution. In practice, negative fault current
seldom occurs. In normal network configurations the gaps will flash in this case.

Two parallel power lines running in electrically close vicinity to each other and ending
at the same busbar at both ends (as shown in figure
distance protection because of the mutual impedance in the zero sequence system. The
current reversal phenomenon also raises problems from the protection point of view,
particularly when the power lines are short and when permissive overreach schemes
are used.

cannot significantly influence the operation of
distance protection as long as both circuits are operating in parallel and all precautions
related to settings of distance protection on series compensated line have been
considered. Influence of disconnected parallel circuit, which is grounded at both ends,
on operation of distance protection on operating circuit is known.
Series compensation additionally exaggerates the effect of zero sequence mutual
impedance between two circuits, see figure
. It presents a zero sequence equivalent
circuit for a fault at B bus of a double circuit line with one circuit disconnected and
