50BF Circuit-Breaker Failure Protection – 3 Pole
The circuit‑breaker fail protection time delays are initiated either from:
•
A binary output mapped as
Trip Contact
in the
Configuration > Binary Inputs > Input
Matrix
menu, or
•
A binary input mapped as 50BF
Ext Trip
in the
Configuration > Binary Inputs > Input
Matrix
menu. Or
•
A binary input mapped as 50BF
Mech Trip
in the
Configuration > Binary Inputs > Input
Matrix
menu.
Apply a trip condition by injection of current to cause operation of a suitable protection element. Allow current
to continue after the trip at a level of 110 % of the 50BF
Setting
current level on any phase. Measure the
time for operation of 50BF-1
Delay
and 50BF-2
Delay
. Repeat the sequence with the 50BF CB
Faulty
input
energized and ensure the 50BF-1 and 50BF-2 outputs operate without delay, by-passing the timer delay
settings.
Repeat the sequence with current at 90 % of the 50BF
Setting
current level after the element trip and check
for no
CB Fail
operation.
Repeat the sequence by injecting the current to CT4 and using the 50BF-I4
Setting
.

If the circuit‑breaker can also receive a trip signal from a protection function where there is no increase in
current, this trip input should be mapped to 50BF
Mech Trip
in the
Configuration > Binary Inputs
> Input Matrix
menu.
Initiate this binary input and simulate the circuit‑breaker remaining closed by ensuring the
CB Closed
binary
input is energized and ensure operation of the 50BF-1 and 50BF-2 outputs after their programmed delays.

60CTS CT Supervision
60CTS-I CT Supervision – Current Reference
Apply 3 Phase balanced current to the relay, reduce the current in any 1 or 2 phases to a level below 60CTS-I
setting. Measure the delay to operation.
