Figure 258: Fault time with maintained selectivity
The operation time can be set individually for each overcurrent protection.
To assure selectivity between different protection functions in the radial network, there
has to be a minimum time difference Dt between the time delays of two protections. To
determine the shortest possible time difference, the operation time of the protection, the
breaker opening time and the protection resetting time must be known. These time delays
can vary significantly between different protective equipment. The following time delays
can be estimated:
Protection operation
time:
15-60 ms
Protection resetting time: 15-60 ms
Breaker opening time: 20-120 ms
