The inputs for the function are the following:
• operating mode selections
• setting parameters
• digital inputs and logic signals
• measured and pre-processed current magnitudes.
The function outputs START, TRIP and BLOCKED signals which can be used for direct I/O controlling
and user logic programming. The function generates general time-stamped ON/OFF events to the
common event buffer from each of the three (3) output signals. In instant operating mode the function
outputs START and TRIP events simultaneously with an equivalent time stamp. The time stamp
resolution is 1 ms. The function also provides a resettable cumulative counter for the START, TRIP and
BLOCKED events.
The following figure presents a simplified function block diagram of the current unbalance function.

Measured input
The function block uses analog current measurement values and always uses calculated positive and
negative sequence currents. In the broken conductor mode (I2/I1) the function also uses the RMS
values of all phase currents to check the minimum current. Zero sequence and component sequence
angles are used for fault registering and for fault analysis processing. A -20 ms averaged value of the
selected magnitude is used for pre-fault data registering.
