CONTROL ELEMENTS
In single-pole tripping applications, the scheme uses local fault type identification provided by the phase selector together
with information received from the remote terminal. The scheme generates output operands
TX4) that are used to transmit the signal to the remote terminal(s). Choices of communications channel include
HYBRID POTT
remote inputs/outputs and telecommunications interfaces. When used with telecommunications facilities, assign the
output operand to operate an output contact connected to key the transmitter at the interface. When used with
telecommunications facilities, assign the output operands to operate output contacts connected to assert the individual
bits at the interface.
To make the scheme fully operational as a stand-alone feature, the scheme output operands must be configured to
interface with other relay functions, output contacts in particular. Typically, you program the output operands to initiate a
trip, breaker fail, and autoreclose, and drive a user-programmable LED as per user application.
When used in conjunction with the trip output element, the scheme is pre-configured to initiate trip, breaker fail, and
single-pole autoreclose actions.

for coping with the exposure of both the over-reaching zone 2 and ground directional overcurrent function to current
reversal conditions.
The transient blocking logic applies to both operate (trip) and send (transmit) paths. Identifying the fault as a reverse fault
prevents the scheme from both operating and keying the channel. If the reverse fault condition prevails for
, the blocking operation is extended by the transient blocking timer for

riding through current reversal conditions.
However, if distance zone 1 picks up during the transient blocking condition, the blocking action is removed. This is to cope
with evolving faults when an external fault is followed by an internal fault. Without the zone 1 feedback, the trip is delayed
unnecessarily.

scheme.
Do not set the delay too short, in order to avoid locking up a spurious reverse fault indication that can occur during internal
fault conditions.
