Section 8
Current protection
8.1.3.2 Meshed network with parallel line
In case of parallel lines, the influence of the induced current from the parallel line to the
protected line has to be considered. One example is given in Figure 59, where the two lines are
connected to the same busbars. In this case the influence of the induced fault current from the
faulty line (line 1) to the healthy line (line 2) is considered together with the two through fault
currents I
IED in Figure
A fault in C has to be applied, and then the maximum current seen from the IED (I
healthy line (this applies for single-phase-to-earth and two-phase-to-earth faults) is
calculated.

The protection function can be used for the specific application only if this setting value is
equal or less than the maximum phase fault current that the IED has to clear.
