Selectivity is assured if the time difference between the curves is larger than a
critical time difference.

Figure 256:
Fault time with maintained selectivity
The operation time can be set individually for each overcurrent protection.
To assure selectivity between different protection functions in the radial network,
there has to be a minimum time difference
D
t between the time delays of two
protections. To determine the shortest possible time difference, the operation time
of the protection, the breaker opening time and the protection resetting time must
be known. These time delays can vary significantly between different protective
equipment. The following time delays can be estimated:
Protection operation
time:
15-60 ms
Protection resetting time: 15-60 ms
Breaker opening time:
20-120 ms
