One common fundamental frequency bias current is used. The bias current is the
magnitude of the highest measured current in the protected circuit. The bias current is
not allowed to drop instantaneously, instead, it decays exponentially with a predefined
time constant. These principles make the differential IED more secure, with less risk
to operate for external faults. The “maximum” principle brings as well more meaning
to the breakpoint settings of the operate-restrain characteristic.
