12.3 NEUTRAL OVERCURRENT
12.3 NEUTRAL OVERCURRENT
Four neutral overcurrent protection elements are provided. Two time overcurrent elements and two instanta-
neous overcurrent elements. They all monitor the calculated neutral current (3 I
set and harmonic components removed. Neutral overcurrent elements can be controlled by the neutral
directional element allowing operation for faults in the permitted direction only. Also, the elements can be
blocked individually or as a group by logic inputs.

Neutral time overcurrent elements 1 and 2 are programmed in this subgroup. They are two identical protection
elements each equivalent to a single ANSI device 51N neutral time overcurrent relay.
