Faults in the protected zone would cause the currents to trip in less than 3
cycles
During external fault both transmitters produce additive blocking pulse for
the full cycle.
During internal fault out of phase pulse cancel blocking pulse, allowing the relay
to trip
SPCU relays are used for Phase comparison for Phase and Phase to
Ground faults
SLYP provides Zone1 element ( 80% of line: instantaneous trip with TT),
Zone2 (125% of Line) (Instantaneous for in zone fault and TT or blocking
signal for out of zone faults) and Zone3 (180% of line sends blocking signal
out of zone faults)
SLYN provides Directional overcurrent, trip for in zone faults and block for
out of zone faults

Over reaching impedance relays with z2 faults operate with time delay covering
125% of the line
Thus Phase Distance Relays and ground over current relays can provide
instantaneous protection for in zone faults
Only one Communication channel is used for sending blocking signal only , used
with PLC schemes
When a terminal receives the shift from Guard to trip frequency and a trip
signal is present from Local relay, the local CB will trip
If zone 2 timer times out it will trip the local CBs irrespective of Tone
signals from receiver to provide a backup protection
If the fault is out of zone, then relay at the remote terminal will not pickup
and removes the Guard frequency, preventing local relay to trip
Loss of Guard signal for six cycles continuously will disable the channel
equipment and continuous alarm will deactivate the relays
