Possible configurations

The simplest and most common configuration is the protection of a conventional two-end power line
(see Figure 31). Circuit breakers (CBs) at both ends can be included in the protected zone
depending on their positions relative to the current transformers (CTs).

Figure 31:
It is also possible to protect a two-end power line that has two CB and CT groups at one end and one
CB and CT group at the other end (see Figure 32). All currents from the three CTs must be fed
separately to L4CPDIF which processes the measured currents independently from each other.
Summing up the CTs' secondary currents at the end with two CB and CT groups is not allowed. CBs
at both ends can be included in the protected zone depending on their positions relative to the CTs.

Figure 32:
If there are two CB and CT groups at both ends of a two-end power line, information on currents
must be fed to all four current inputs of both IEDs. Current values at the remote end are obtained via
a communication channel as shown in Figure 33. Summing up the CTs' secondary currents at the
end with two CB and CT groups is not allowed. CBs at both ends can be included in the protected
zone depending on their positions relative to the CTs.
