D
EAD LINE DETECTION FUNCTION
The “Dead Line Detection” (DLD) function generates a signal ind
icating the dead or live
state of the line. Additional signals are generated to indicate if the phase voltages and
phase currents are above the pre-defined limits.
The task of the “Dead Line Detection” (DLD) function is to decide the Dead line/Live line
state.
Criteria of “Dead line” state
: all three phase voltages are below the voltage setting value
AND all three currents are below the current setting value.
Criteria of “Live line” state
: all three phase voltages are above the voltage setting value.
Dead line detection function is used in the voltage transformer supervision function also as
an additional condition.
In the figure below is presented the operating logic of the dead line detection function.
