ABSTRACT:
A percent unbalance or ratio ground relay which detects open phase conductors on electrical distribution circuits, as well as single-phase-to-ground faults regardless of fault impedance, by providing an operating quantity responsive to zero sequence current, and a restraining quantity responsive to a pre-fault balanced phase current minus the zero sequence current. This restraint torque arrangement causes the relay to operate on true ratio unbalance, regardless of load.
