In breaker-and-a-half arrangements, there are two local currents meaning two 64 kbit/s
channels to each remote substation. Alternatively, it is possible to add together the two
local currents before sending them and in that way reduce the number of
communication channels needed. This is achieved by selecting proper setting for
parameter
TransmCurr
(
CT-SUM, CT-DIFF1
or
CT-DIFF2
). However, information
about bias currents is reduced if the alternative option is followed. For further
information and discussions on this matter, refer to the Application manual.
The communication can be arranged as a master-master system or a master-slave
system alternatively. Figure
shows a master-master system for a five-terminal line.
Here current samples are exchanged between all IEDs, and an evaluation is made in
each IED. This means that a 64 kbit/s communication channel is needed between every
IED included in the same line differential protection zone.

In the master-slave system, current samples are sent from all slave IEDs to one master
IED where the evaluation is made and trip signals are sent to the remote ends when
needed. In this system, a 64 kbit/s communication channel is only needed between the
master, and each one of the slave IEDs, as shown in figure
