OPENCTIN : Open CT in CT group inputs (1 for input 1 and 2 for input 2)

OPENCTPH: Open CT with phase information (1 for phase Ll, 2 for phase
L2, 3 for phase L3)

Setting guidelines
Line differential protection receives information about currents from all line
terminals and evaluates this information in three different analysis blocks. The
results of these analyses are then forwarded to an output logic, where the
conditions for trip or no trip are checked.
The three current analysis are:
Percentage restrained differential analysis
2nd and 5th harmonic analysis
Internal/external fault discriminator

General settings
IBase set in primary Amp
A common lease shall be set for the protected line (circuit). Most current settings
for the protection function are then related to the lBase. The setting of iiBase i"V

NoOtTerminals
NoOfTerminals indicate to the function the number of three-phase CT sets included
in the protected circuit. Note that one lED can "process" one or two current
terminals of the protected circuit. This is, for example, the case in 1Y2breaker
configurations there in the line bay, each of the two CT sets will be represented as
one current terminal. A protected line with 1Y2breaker configurations at each line
end may consequently have NoOfTerminals = 4.
