Figure 15 Single End Fed fault Rf mode, negative half cycle
The single end fed internal fault conditions configure the circuit in a similar way to the double end fed internal fault
but only one summation transformer has any output. Thus the other summation transformer acts only as an
equalising transformer, re-circulating current through the measuring element as indicated in
Figure 14 & Figure
15. The voltage distribution shows diagrammatically how, in each half cycle, the measuring elements are
energised via R
a
at the energised end and the action of the remote end summation transformer re-circulating
current via the polarising diodes D4 on one half-cycle and D8 on the other half-cycle.
