The IED must not trip for any of the two through-fault currents. Hence the minimum theoretical
current setting (Imin) will be:

A safety margin of 5% for the maximum protection static inaccuracy and a safety margin of 5% for
the maximum possible transient overreach have to be introduced. An additional 20% is suggested
due to the inaccuracy of the instrument transformers under transient conditions and inaccuracy in
the system data.
The minimum primary setting (Is) for the instantaneous phase overcurrent protection is then:
