Internal and external faults
LREFPNDF does not respond to any faults outside the protected zone. An external
fault is detected by checking the phase angle difference of the neutral current and
the sum of the phase currents. When the difference is less than 90 degrees, the
operation is internally restrained or blocked. Hence the protection is not sensitive to
an external fault.
