field is updated even if it has been set previously. The frequency is measured
from the voltage signals.

• Fixed: The frequency is not updated based on the measured voltage and only
the set value is used. This mode is recommended to be used for the line-
differential function.

4.1.2 Current scaling

NOTE: The rated value of the relay's current input, for example 5 A or 1 A,
does not have any effect on the scaling equations, but it defines the
measurement range and the maximum allowed continuous current. See Table
161 - Measuring circuits on page 349 for details.
Table 19 - Primary and secondary scaling

Current (CT)

Residual current calculated

secondary → primary
CTPRI
I PRI = I SEC ⋅
CTSEC

primary → secondary
CTSEC
I SEC = I PRI ⋅
CTPRI

For earth fault overcurrent to input I0, use the corresponding CTPRI and CTSEC
values. For earth fault stages using I0 Calc signals, use the phase current CT
values for CTPRI and CTSEC.

Examples

1. Secondary to primary

CT = 500 / 5
Current to the relay's input is 4 A.
=> Primary current is IPRI = 4 x 500 / 5 = 400 A

2. Primary to secondary

CT = 500 / 5
The relay displays IPRI = 400 A
=> Injected current is ISEC = 400 x 5 / 500 = 4 A
