3. The ultra-fast derivative dSCV1_UF will be greater than 0.55
(pu V/cyc) for more than 4 cycles.
4. Either all three poles are open (3PO) or an internal loss-of-
potential (ILOP) occurred.

The Dependable
Power-Swing
Blocking Function
The dependable PSB detector function asserts the DOSB signal for power-
swing conditions where neither the slope detector nor the swing signature
detector can detect a power swing fast enough. An example of this type of
situation might occur after a slow-clearing fault right behind or at the remote
end of a transmission line on a marginally stable network.
As shown in Figure 3.107, if a close reverse or forward fault clears with a
significant delay, there is a possibility that the network has entered a power
swing. In this case, the Z1 trajectory at the relay may cross into the Zone 2 or
Zone 1 phase-mho characteristic right after the fault clears, but before the
slope detector has detected the power swing. In this case, the phase mho
elements of the relay may issue a trip signal as a result of the power swing and
not because of a real fault. To overcome this problem, the dependable power-
swing detector asserts the DOSB (see Figure 3.101) signal to block the
distance elements until the slope detector has had time to detect a power
swing.
