Figure 3.163 Scheme 2 Single-Pole Circuit Breaker Failure Protection Logic
Retrip Logic
Some single-pole circuit breakers have two separate trip coils per pole. All
three primary trip coils are energized if the line-relaying scheme asserts a
three-pole trip. If one or more of the primary trip coils fail, the local protection
should attempt a three-pole retrip.
Only one of the primary trip coils is energized if the line-relaying scheme
asserts a single-pole trip. The corresponding primary trip coil can fail
following the single-pole trip. You can decide whether to single-pole or
three-pole retrip following the unsuccessful single-pole trip. Attempt all local
retrips before the corresponding circuit breaker failure time delay (BFPUn and
SPBFPUn) on pickup timer expires.
Figure 3.164 illustrates the current-supervised three-pole retrip logic. Timer
RT3PPU1 (Breaker 1 three-pole retrip time delay on pickup timer) begins
timing when at least two of the initiation Relay Word bits BFIA1, BFIB1, or
BFIC1 assert. The relay asserts RT3P1 (three-pole retrip) when timer
RT3PPU1 times out. You can use just output RT3P1 for three-pole retrip
without current supervision. Relay Word bit RTS3P1 (Breaker 1 current
supervised three-pole retrip) asserts immediately after timer RT3PPU1
expires, if one of the phase current level detectors is picked up.

Figure 3.165 illustrates the current-supervised single-pole retrip logic. Timer
RTPU1 (Breaker 1 retrip time delay on pickup timer) begins timing when
initiation Relay Word bit BFIA1 asserts. Relay Word bit RTA1 (Breaker 1
A-phase retrip) asserts immediately after timer RTPU1 expires. You can use
just the RTA1 output for single-pole retrip without current supervision. Relay
Word bit RTSA1 (Breaker 1 current supervised A-phase retrip) asserts if
50FA1 is picked up.
