Inverse Operation Time (I
0
> stage only)
Inverse delay means that the operation time depends on the amount
the measured current exceeds the pick-up setting. The bigger the
fault current is the faster will be the operation. Accomplished
inverse delays are available for the I
0
> stage. The inverse delay
types are described in Chapter 2. The relay will show a scaleable
graph of the configured delay on the local panel display.
Inverse Time Limitation
The maximum measured secondary residual current is 10xI
0N
and
maximum measured phase current is 50xI
N
. This limits the scope of
inverse curves with high pick-up settings. See Chapter 2 for more
information.
Setting Groups
There are two settings groups available for each stage. Switching
between setting groups can be controlled by digital inputs, virtual
inputs (mimic display, communication, logic) and manually.
