7.11.1 LINE IMPEDANCE CALCULATION
Ratio of secondary to primary impedance = (1200/5)/(230000/115) = 0.12
Total primary line impedance (for 100 km length) = 100 x 0.484 Ð 79.4° W
Total secondary impedance = (0.12 x 100 x 0.484) Ð 79.4° = 5.81 Ð 79.4° W
Therefore set secondary values as follows:
Line Angle = 80°
Line Impedance = 5.81 W
7.11.2 RESIDUAL COMPENSATION FOR EARTH FAULT ELEMENTS
The residual compensation factor can be applied independently to certain zones if required. This is a useful feature
where line impedance characteristics change between sections or where hybrid circuits are used. In this example
this is not the case, so a common kZN factor can be applied to each zone. This is set as ratio kZN Res Comp, and
angle KZN Res Angle:
We know that

Now, performing the calculations iwht the given values ...

Ð (Z

= 79.4°
Thus ...

= 0.79 Ð 6.5°
Therefore set:
kZN Res Comp = 0.79
KZN Res Angle = -6.5°
7.11.3
ZONE 1 PHASE AND GROUND REACH SETTINGS
For the protection at Green Valley:
The required Zone 1 reach is to be 80% of the line impedance between Green Valley and Blue River substations.
Using the Setting Mode Simple:
● Set Zone 1 Ph Status and Zone 1 Gnd Stat. to Enabled
● Set Zone 1 Ph Reach and Zone 1 Gnd Reach to 80%
From this the protection algorithm automatically calculates the required Ohmic reaches.
Alternatively, using the Setting Mode Advanced, the values can be calculated and entered manually as follows:
Required Zone 1 reach = 0.8 x 100 x 0.484 Ð 79.4° x 0.12 = 4.64 Ð 79.4° W secondary
