2.8 Directional Earth-Fault (50/51G, 50/51N, 50/51SEF)
The directional earth-fault elements, either measured directly or derived from the three line currents the zero
sequence current (operate quantity) and compare this against the derived zero phase sequence voltage
(polarising quantity). Chapter 1 of the Technical Manual ‘Description of Operation’ details the method of
measurement. The required setting is entered directly as dictated by the system impedances.
Example: Expected fault angle is -45° (i.e. residual current lagging residual voltage) therefore
67G Char Angle
=
-45°
However directional earth elements can be selectable to use either ZPS or NPS Polarising. This is to allow for the
situation where ZPS voltage is not available; perhaps because a 3-limb VT is being used. Care must be taken as
the Characteristic Angle will change if NPS Polarising is used.
Once again the fault angle is completely predictable, though this is a little more complicated as the method of
earthing must be considered.

2.8.1 Compensated Coil Earthing Networks
In compensated networks the Resonant Coil (Petersen coil) is tuned to match the capacitive charging currents
such that when an earth fault occurs, negligible fault current will flow. However, resistive losses in the primary
conductors and also in the earthing coil will lead to resistive (wattmetric) components which can be measured by
the 50/51SEF elements and used to indicate fault position. Core balance CTs are recommended for this
application to achieve the necessary accuracy of residual current measurement.
