The voltage unbalance and voltage variation functions are used
for measuring short-duration voltage variations and monitoring
voltage unbalance conditions in power transmission and
distribution networks.
The voltage and current harmonics functions provide a method
for monitoring the power quality by means of the current
waveform distortion and voltage waveform distortion. The
functions provide selectable short-term 3- or 60- or 300
second sliding average and a long-term demand for total
demand distortion (TDD) and total harmonic distortion (THD).
The phase-specific harmonic content is measured for voltages
and currents, as well as DC component and fundamental
content. The dedicated harmonics measurement page in the
LHMI presents the measurements in a user-friendly manner.
Fault locator
The relay features an optional impedance-measuring fault
location function suitable for locating short circuits in radial
distribution systems. Earth faults can be located in effectively
and low-resistance earthed networks, as well as in
compensated networks. When the fault current magnitude is at
least of the same order of magnitude or higher than the load
current, earth faults can also be located in isolated neutral
distribution networks. The fault location function identifies the
type of the fault and then calculates the distance to the fault
point. The calculations provide information on the fault
resistance value and accuracy of the estimated distance to the
fault point.
