Directional relays are not just overcurrent devices with extra logic. They compare current from CTs with voltage from PTs to determine the fault direction. That single capability is decisive in
Directional protection and directional zone selectivity
The directional protection is achieved by analyzing the current waveform and determining the direction of current flow, which enables the relay to determine the location of the fault.

This protection functionality is very similar to pro-tection “S” with fixed time, with the capacity to recognize the current direction during the fault period as well.
Use of Directional Elements at the Utility-Industrial Interface
Design engineers made the decision to install the 67P relay based on experience and available references. The 67P relay is intended to detect high-side faults that may occur when the high-side
