Checking Relay Operation
Phase-to-Phase Distance Element MBC2
The SEL-421 contains mho phase distance elements among the many
protection elements in the relay. The relay has phase distance elements to
detect phase-to-phase faults, phase-to-phase-to-ground faults, and three-phase
faults. The SEL-421 has five independent zones of mho phase distance
protection; each zone consists of phase-to-phase elements that the relay
combines to produce a particular zone output.
For example, the OR combination of MAB2, MBC2, and MCA2 produces the
M2P Zone 2 mho phase element. For more information on the mho phase
elements and other distance elements, see

Test Current and Voltage for a Phase-to-Phase Fault
To find the test current for a phase-to-phase fault, consider
for a
B-phase to C-phase fault:
Equation 6.9
The B-phase to C-phase current vector, I
BC
, is:
Equation 6.10
Choose a convenient test source current magnitude, |I
TEST
| = 2.5 A; then
|I
BC
| = 2 • |I
TEST
| = 5 A.
Find the magnitude of the test source voltage |V
TEST
|:
Equation 6.11
where relay setting Z2P (Zone 2 Reach) substitutes for the B-phase to C-phase
impedance Z
BC
. For setting Z2P of 9.36
Ω
, the test voltage magnitude |V
