Voltage phasors at the two terminals of a transmissi on line of length 70 k m have a magnitude of 1.0 per unit but are 180 degrees out of phase. Assuming that the maximum load current in the line is 1 5 th of minimum 3-phase fault current, which one of the following transmission line protection schemes will NOT pick up for this condition?
-
- Distance protection using mho relays with zone-1 set to 80% of the line impedance
- Directional overcurrent protection set to pick up at 1.25 times the maximum load current
- Pilot relaying system with directional comparison scheme
- Pilot relaying system with segregated phase comparison scheme
Correct Option: A
Distance protection using mho relays with zone – 1 set to 80% of line impedance will not provide protection.
