  • Abstract
    MOST TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS are grounded, usually solidly, and at several points. Consequently, except on a few cases, ample ground or residual current and voltage are available for ground relaying. Negative-sequence quantities also are used. None of these quantities are present during normal balanced 3-phase operation so that separate relays can be used, set sensitively, and below 3-phase load.
