After initiation of the breaker failure protection (CBF)
by the TRIP command from the feeder protection, the
delay time (T-CBF) ( ) is startet.
If the CBF initiation is still active after the time T-CBF
has elapsed, then the polarity of the feeder current
for determination of the differential current I is
changed ("unbalancing") in the protection algorithm.
If the TRIP criterion and the current sensor criterion
are fulfilled, then a three-phase TRIP command is
issued to all feeders of the bus section with the CBF
initiating bay unit.
The principle of "unbalancing" is depicted in figure
4.16. Unbalancing causes a differential current of
twice the magnitude of the current in the CBF initiaĆ
ting feeder.

This operation mode also uses the "unbalancing"
described in chapter 4.6.1.3. Before all feeders of the
bus zone with the CBF initiating bay unit are tripped
three-phase, the TRIP command is repeated.
This operation mode lends itself well for circuit breaĆ
kers which have two trip coils.
