SEL 311L Differential Element
The SEL-311L restraint characteristic
Surrounds the ideal external fault and load current point
Allows for errors in both magnitude and phase angle caused by CT saturation, channel asymmetry etc.
Is adjustable both in angular extent and radial reach.

Inrush Protection
z Increases the minimum trip thresholds and slows the relay operation
z Active when relay it detects that local or remote breaker is open.
z Defeated in test plan by setting the relay 52a logic to assert (52A = 1).
z Otherwise use test set logic sources to simulate 52a
