the element. When the voltage is below this threshold, a blocking signal is not asserted by the element. When selecting
this setting, remember that the L90 measures the phase-to-ground sequence voltages regardless of the VT connection.
The nominal VT secondary voltage as specified with the
setting is the per-unit base for this setting.
