Step 4 

Determine the 

Neutral Inst Overcurrent Trip Level

 setting. 

50NN21P = ________________ 

Set the 50N element to 50 percent of the maximum ground fault current. Obtain the maximum value from 
a system fault study. 

For this example, assume a 5,000 A ground fault current. 

Step 5 

Verify that the 

Neutral Inst Overcurrent Trip Delay

 (50NN1D) is set at minimum value of 0.50. 

Step 6 

Select 

Group 1 > Set 1 > Winding 2 Elements

Step 7 

Determine the 

Winding 2 Phase Time Overcurrent Trip Level

 setting. 

51P2P = __________________ 

Set the phase time-overcurrent element to 150 percent of the continuous rated amperes. 

Step 8 

Set the 

Winding 2 Phase TOC Curve Selection

 to coordinate with the downstream time-overcurrent 

protection.
