Distance protection is a vital defense mechanism for electrical transmission lines. It detects faults by measuring impedance changes and promptly isolates faulted sections, ensuring system reliability and minimizing disruptions.
Function overview

Tele (pilot) protection (85)
Fault locator (FL)
Power-swing detection/tripping (68/68T)
Phase overcurrent protection (50/51/67)
Switch-onto-fault protection (50HS)
