MiCOM P632
Low imped. / IP,max” Operating Mode

Using this operating mode differential current Id and restraining current IR are defined as follows:

When compared to the “Low imped. / sum(IP)” operating mode, a double slope tripping characteristic can be used here because of the definition of the restraining current (see Fig. 3-107). In particular, this tripping characteristic permits a tripping test under load current by shorting a phase current (to simulate residual current) without the need of star point current IY.

Besides the Idiff> parameter, already available to set the basic pick-up sensitivity, the following parameters are also provided with the “Low imped. / IP,max” operating mode to set the tripping characteristic; in this case IR,m2 is equivalent to Iref.
