General
A precondition for using the fast tripping function is that the configuration of the device functions (Section 2.1.1)
has been set at address

The magnitude of fault current which leads to the pickup of the

.
Choose a value which is high enough for the protection not to pick up on the RMS value of the inrush current
produced during the connection of the protected object. On the other hand, fault currents flowing through the
protected object do not need to be considered.
When using a PC and DIGSI for the parameterization, the values can be optionally entered as primary or sec-
ondary quantities. For settings with secondary values, the currents will be converted for the secondary side of
the current transformers.

, you can specify whether only the switch position of the local circuit
breaker is checked to release the stage (
local only
) or also the switch position of the circuit breakers at the
other ends (
local and rem.
). If set to
local and rem.
, the stage is active when the local end is energized
while the circuit breakers at all other terminals of the protected object are opened.
