CB inherent time up to current interruption
Dropout time of CBFP function
Subtotal
Security
Total (time T1)
EXAMPLE (1/3-Pole Circuit Breaker)
Different T1 Times, Depending on whether the Start Was 1-Pole or 3-Pole:
The protection tripping can be 1-pole. 1-pole tripping results in a 1-pole AREC. The retripping prompted by the
CBFP should be 3-pole on principle.
Under these circumstances, the T1 time can be set to a small value (for example 50 ms) for a 3-pole start. The
T1 time for 1-pole start, however, must be set to the full clearance time (for example, 130 ms), because the 2
healthy phases are to be tripped only in case of a real circuit-breaker failure.
Parameter: Delay T2 for 1-pole trip, Delay T2 for 3-pole trip
•
Default setting (_:114) Delay T2 for 1-pole trip = 0.13 s
•
Default setting (_:112) Delay T2 for 3-pole trip = 0.13 s
This setting has to ensure that after opening of the local CB the function drops out reliably and that backup
tripping is avoided under all circumstances. The setting depends on the parameter Retrip after T1.
If T2 is started afterT1, there is no need to consider the time T1 for the setting of T2.
EXAMPLE
Determining the T2 Time that Reliably Ensures the Dropout of the CBFP with the CB Open:
Time of binary device output
(when tripping is caused by the device-internal
protection)
CB inherent time up to current interruption
Dropout time of CBFP function
Subtotal
Security
Total (time T2)
If T1 and T2 are started in parallel, take into account the time T1 for the setting of T2.
EXAMPLE
Simultaneous start of T2 and T1
Time for a reliable dropout after the local CB has
opened
Setting of T1
Total (= T2)
You can set different times for a 1-pole and 3-pole (multipole) start. In case of 1-phase short circuits – that do
not jeopardize network stability – it can make sense to allow more time to the local CB (for example, twice the
clearance time: 2 x 130 ms = 260 ms), expecting that the CB will open yet. Thus, tripping of the surrounding
CBs can be avoided.
