time
-1800.000...1800.000s 0.005s
Displays the expected operating time when a fault occurs. When IDMT mode
is used, the expected operating time depends on the measured highest phase
current value. If the measured current changes during a fault, the expected
operating time changes accordingly.

0.005s When the function has detected a fault and counts down time towards a trip,
this displays how much time is left before tripping occurs.

The ratio between the highest measured phase current and the pick-up value.
Function blocking
The block signal is checked in the beginning of each program cycle. The blocking signal is received
from the blocking matrix in the function's dedicated input. Additionally, the non-directional overcurrent
function includes an internal inrush harmonic blocking option which is applied according to the
parameters set by the user. If the blocking signal is not activated when the pick-up element activates, a
START signal is generated and the function proceeds to the time characteristics calculation.

If the blocking signal is active when the pick-up element activates, a BLOCKED signal is generated and
the function does not process the situation further. If the START function has been activated before the
blocking signal, it resets and the release time characteristics are processed similarly to when the pick-
up signal is reset.
The blocking of the function causes an HMI display event and a-time stamped blocking event with
information of the startup current values and its fault type to be issued.
The blocking signal can also be tested in the commissioning phase by a software switch signal when
the relay's testing mode "Enable stage forcing" is activated (
General
→
Device).
The variables the user can set are binary signals from the system. The blocking signal needs to reach
the device minimum of 5 ms before the set operating delay has passed in order for the blocking to
activate in time.
