CHAPTER 8: COMMISSIONING
The tests verify the operation and no-operation response for points from all regions of the percentage differential
characteristic. These tests are:
•
Test for zero differential current
•
Minimum pickup
•
Slope 1
•
The region between Slope 1 and Slope 2
•
Slope 2

These are determined as follows.
From the Current Distribution diagram earlier, there is a 0.866 pu x 100.4 A/200 = 0.434 A secondary current for HV
phases B and C, and a 0.866 pu x 925.98 A/1000 = 0.8 A secondary current for LV phases b and c.
