EQUATION1379 V3 EN-US
(Equation 316)
Calculation for a 400 kV line, where we for simplicity have excluded the resistance,
gives with X1L=0.48 Ohm/Mile, X0L=1.4Ohms/Mile, zone 1 reach is set to 90% of
the line reactance p=71% that is, the protection is underreaching with approximately
20%.
The zero sequence mutual coupling can reduce the reach of distance protection on the
protected circuit when the parallel line is in normal operation. The reduction of the
reach is most pronounced with no current infeed in the IED closest to the fault. This
reach reduction is normally less than 15%. But when the reach is reduced at one line
end, it is proportionally increased at the opposite line end. So this 15% reach reduction
does not significantly affect the operation of a permissive underreaching scheme.
