secure than permissive schemes because it will trip for external faults within the reach of the
tripping function if the communication channel is out of service.
Inadequate speed or dependability can cause spurious tripping for external faults. Inadequate
security can cause delayed tripping for internal faults.
To secure that the send signal will arrive before the zone used in the communication scheme
will trip, the trip is released first after the time delay
must be set longer than the maximal transmission time of the channel. A security margin of at
least 10 ms should be considered.

16.1.2.2 Delta blocking scheme
In the delta blocking scheme a fault inception detection element using delta based quantities
of voltage and current will send a block signal to the remote end to block an overreaching
zone.
The delta based start is very fast and if the transmission channel is fast then there is no need
for delaying the operation of remote distance element. If the fault is in forward direction, the
sending is inhibited by a forward directed distance (or directional current or directional earth
fault) element.
Since the scheme is sending the blocking signal during conditions where the protected line is
healthy, it is common to use the line itself as communication media (PLC). The scheme can be
used on all line lengths.
The blocking scheme is very dependable because it will operate for faults anywhere on the
protected line if the communication channel is out of service. Conversely, it is less secure than
permissive schemes because it will trip for external faults within the reach of the tripping
function if the communication channel is out of service.
Inadequate speed or dependability can cause spurious tripping for external faults. Inadequate
security can cause delayed tripping for internal faults.
