rents (Ref. 7) and is used in most transformer relation to steady-state current than indicated by
differential relays, either alone or in combination Fig. 13, in order to keep the figure to a reason-
with other nonfundamental components, though able size.
there are other waveshape monitoring schemes
in a couple relays in the market. The harmonic
sensing relays most commonly block operation
if the harmonic(s) in the operate leg exceed(s) a
given percentage of the fundamental compo-
nent, though some relays on the market use the
harmonic to increase the restraint current. Some
relays (e.g. Basler products) use a scheme that
uses total harmonic current in all three phases in
the analysis of every phase, and some use a
cross blocking scheme, where if one phase is
blocked, all phases are blocked. In the BE1-87T,
the percentage settings are fixed, but in the BE1-
CDS2x0, the harmonic restraint level is a user
setting.
