For the three-bus power system shown in the figure, the trip signals to the circuit breakers B$$_1$$ to B$$_9$$ are provided by overcurrent relays R$$_1$$ to R$$_9$$, respectively, some of which have directional properties also. The necessary condition for the system to be protected for short circuit fault at any part of the system between bus 1 and the R-L loads with isolation of minimum portion of the network using minimum number of directional relays is

A two machine power system in shown below. Transmission line $$XY$$ has positive sequence impedance of $${Z_1}\Omega $$ and zero sequence impedance of $${Z_0}\Omega $$ GATE EE 2008 Power System Analysis - Switch Gear and Protection Question 16 English
An $$'a'$$ phase to ground fault with zero fault impedance occurs at the centre of the transmission line. Bus voltage at $$X$$ and line current from $$X$$ to $$F$$ for the phase $$'a',$$ are given by $${V_a}$$ Volts and $${{\rm I}_a}$$ Amperes, respectively. Then, the impedance measured by the ground distance relay located at the terminal $$X$$ of line $$XY$$ will be given by
A
$${Z_1}/2\Omega $$
B
$${Z_0}/2\Omega $$
C
$$\left( {{Z_0} + {Z_1}} \right)/2\Omega $$
D
$${V_a}/{{\rm I}_a}\,\Omega $$
