There are uncertainties in the values of protection operation time, breaker opening time
and protection resetting time. Therefore a safety margin has to be included. With
normal values the needed time difference can be calculated according to equation 345.

where it is considered that:  
the operate time of overcurrent protection B1 is 40 ms
the breaker open time is 100 ms
the resetting time of protection A1 is 40 ms and
the additional margin is 40 ms
