Stub Protection A further overcurrent stage is the stub protection. It can however also be used as a
normal additional definite time overcurrent stage, as it functions independent of the
other stages.
A stub fault is a short-circuit located between the current transformer set and the line
isolator. It is of particular importance with the 1

If a fault current I
A
and/or I
B
flows while the line isolator 1 is open, this implies that a
fault in the stub range between the current transformers I
A
, I
B
, and the line isolator
exists. The circuit breakers CBA and CBC which carry fault current may be tripped
without delay.The two sets of current transformers are connected in parallel such that
the current sum I
F
= I
A
+ I
B
represents the current flowing towards the line isolator.
The stub protection is an overcurrent protection which is only in service when the state
of the line isolator indicates the open condition via a binary input “!,678%(1$%/(”.
The binary input must therefore be operated via an auxiliary contact of the isolator. In
the case of a closed line isolator, the stub protection is out of service. Figure 6-86
shows the logic diagram.
If the stub protection stage is to be used as a normal definite time overcurrent stage,
the binary input “!%/2&.,678%”, should be left without allocation or routing
(matrix). The enable input “!,678%(1$%/(”, however, has to be constantly
activated (either via a binary input or via integrated logic (CFC) functions which can be
configured by the user.
