Last operation measurements
Note that, in opening operations, the “Opening reaction time (t1)” and the “52a contact switching
time” are the same value because t1 uses the 52a time. This would not be the case if a travel sensor
was present, hence why there are 2x separate lines. See section 5.3.2 later
The same applies to “Opening reaction time (t2)” and the “52b contact switching time” and similarly
for closing times.
Discordance between poles (IPO CB only)
With an IPO CB, when all poles are operated simultaneously, the opening and closing
operation timing are compared for each pole and any differences are highlighted.
•
The
“
discordances
”
are the timing differences pole to pole (A-B, A-C, C-B),
•
The maximum discordance is also recorded (also
referred to as “
discrepancy
”)
There will always be small differences pole-to-pole, but these should be kept small as high
values may lead to large voltage spikes being generated that could potentially damage
network and equipment.
