Compute positive, negative, and zerosequence components. The zerosequence impedance is usually given as a percentage of the rated phase impedance. Finally you need to enter the zero sequence reactance and its corresponding xr ratio. Negative sequence impedance the impedance offered by the system to the flow of negative sequence current is called negative sequence impedance. This is because in a balanced system, there are no negative sequence or zero sequence voltages. Voltage unbalance mitigation using positive sequence. The software overlays the characteristics of each of the elements in both the it diagram and the directional diagram.
In a threephase system, one set of phasors has the same phase sequence as the system under study positive sequence. Voltage unbalance is a common type of power quality problem. There phase fault s are unique since they are balanced i. Therefore, the diagram shows the normal balanced operating state of the system where only positivesequence current flows, and there is no negative or zerosequence current. Likewise, the negative sequence is denoted with the subscript 2 and the zero sequence is denoted with the subscript 0. Three phase voltages the third symmetrical component is zero sequence. The balanced set of components can be given as a positive sequence component, negative sequence component, and zero phase sequence component. Contents hide 1 positive sequence components in a nonfaulted, threephase power system. Quick sequence diagram editor might suit your needs. Can these be observed in real life or are they just mathematical means of observing current in a 3 phase system. Doublecheck the threephase fault data and the singlelinetoground fault data entered in the utility component editor. Generator negative sequence overload protection duration.

For transformers, assume the negative and zero sequence impedances equal the positive sequence impedance. The zero sequence network will be internally free of the internal fault point and the flow of current being caused by the voltage at the fault point.
