Breaker failure (BF)
The elements (I>>, I>>>) can produce the Breaker Failure output if the Trip I>> and/or Trip I>>>
outputs are set for BF Enable. The outputs are available inside the Set \ Breaker failure menu.

Cold load pickup
If the CLP function (Cold Load Pick-up) is enabled for element blocking, the selected threshold may
be blocked for an adjustable time interval, starting from the circuit breaker closure.
This operating mode may be select by setting ON-Blocking the ICLP>>and/or ICLP>>> param-
eters.
If the CLP function (Cold Load Pick-up) is enabled for threshold change, the selected threshold may
be changed for an adjustable time interval, starting from the circuit breaker closure.
This operating mode may be select by setting ON-Changing the ICLP>>and/or ICLP>> param-
eters, whereas the operating thresholds within the CLP may be adjusted inside the Set \ 50/51 Funda-
mental \ I> Element, (I>> Element) \ I>> Definite (I>>> Definite) or I>> Inverse (I>>> Inverse) menus.
For both operating modes the CLP Activation time parameters (tCLP>>, tCLP>>>) may be ad-
justed inside the Set \ 50/51 Fundamental \ I>> Element, (I>>> Element) \ I>> Setpoint (I>>> Setpoint)
menus.
Note 1 The common settings concerning the Breaker failure protection are adjustable inside the Breaker Failure - BF menu.
