4.2.1.8 Application
EFxPTOC is designed for protection and clearance of earth faults in distribution
and sub-transmission networks where the neutral point is isolated or earthed
via a resonance coil or through low resistance. It also applies to solidly earthed
networks and earth-fault protection of different equipment connected to the power
systems, such as shunt capacitor bank or shunt reactors and for backup earth-fault
protection of power transformers.
Many applications require several steps using different current start levels and time
delays. EFxPTOC consists of three different protection stages.
• Low EFLPTOC
• High EFHPTOC
• Instantaneous EFIPTOC
EFLPTOC contains several types of time-delay characteristics. EFHPTOC and
EFIPTOC are used for fast clearance of serious earth faults.
