Abstract
The method of correcting measurements is intended to limit the risk of unnecessary tripping of a differential phase current protection system that computes the vector sum of the currents of an area to determine the differential current between the inputs and outputs of said area in the course of regular tests. It is based on a statistical balancing method using measured current vectors each obtained from a measurement of the real current vector supplied at the time of each test by a current transformer, and it uses at the time of at least one test an iterative convergence algorithm for determining from the erroneous differential current vector formed by the sum of the measured current vectors the correction vector to be applied to each measured current vector in order to correct statistically the erroneous differential current vector.
