·cos φ
φ is defined as the angle between the residual current 3I
0
and the reference voltage.

) ). RCADir is normally set equal to 0 in a high impedance
earthed network with a neutral point resistor as the active current component is
appearing out on the faulted feeder only. RCADir is set equal to -90° in an isolated
network as all currents are mainly capacitive. The function operates when 3I

gets larger than the set value.
