2.18.3 Aided DEF protection schemes
The option of using separate channels for DEF aided tripping, and distance protection
schemes, is offered in the P441, P442 and P444 relays. Since C1.0 a better sensitivity has
been created by using a settable threshold for the residual current in case of reverse
fault for creating quicker blocking scheme logic.
The IN Rev factor can be adjusted from 10% to 100% of IN
As well in case of independent channel logic with a blocking scheme an independent
transmission timer Tp has been created with a short step at : 2ms
When a separate channel for DEF is used, the above DEF schemes are independently
selectable. When a common signalling channel is employed, the distance and DEF must
Share a common scheme. In this case a permissive overreach or blocking distance scheme
must be used. The aided tripping schemes can perform single pole tripping.
The relay has aided scheme settings as shown in the following table:
