Figure 6-112 Time sequence example for normal clearance of a fault, and with circuit breaker
failure, using two-stage breaker failure protection
Single-stage
breaker failure pro-
tection
With single-stage operation, the adjacent circuit breakers (i.e. the breakers of the bus-
bar zone and — if transmission of the signal is possible — the breaker at the remote
end) are tripped after a delay time
7
(address
) following initiation, should the
fault not have been cleared within this time.
The timers
(address
) and
(address
) are then set to
∞
since they are not needed.
But you may use the T1-timers for single-stage protection if you wish to utilize the fa-
cility of setting different delay times after single-pole trip and three-pole trip of the feed-
er protection. In this case, set the desired times under addresses
and
but set address
1R
to avoid a single-
pole trip to the bus-bar. And set
7
(address
) to
∞
. Be
sure that the correct trip commands are assigned to the desired trip relay(s).
The delay times are determined from the maximum operating time of the feeder circuit
breaker, the reset time of the current detectors of the breaker failure protection, plus
a safety margin which allows for any tolerance of the delay timers. The time sequence
is illustrated in Figure 6-113. For sinusoidal currents one can assume that the reset
time of the current detectors is less than 10 ms but if current transformer saturation is
expected then 20 ms should be assumed.
