be controlled by a pole of a standard external test switch that is opened with the rest of the test switch
poles.
The logic expression for test mode drives virtual output 15 (VO15). This virtual output is alarm bit #23 in
the programmable alarm mask. It can be masked to drive an alarm LED to provide indication when the
relay is in test mode.
Contingency Operation - Backup Protection for Feeder Breaker Failure
OUT5 is configured as the breaker failure trip output. OUT5 can be wired to trip the bus breaker or a
lockout relay. The breaker failure pickup (BFPU) output trips the feeder breaker directly via output 1 to
provide a breaker re-trip signal for added security.
Initiation of the BF function block by external relays is not accommodated in this scheme. IN2, IN3, or IN4
can be programmed to provide this function or Feeder_4 logic may be used. The breaker failure function
block is initiated by a protective trip. This function block has an independent fast drop out phase and
ground current detector that detects opening and stops timing. An open breaker is detected when the
current drops below 10% of nominal.
Setting the time delay at zero disables the BF function block. This permits the traditional radial system
backup scheme of coordinated relays tripping different breakers.
Feeder_3 logic stops the block signal to allow the bus relay to trip the bus breaker through its 50T
elements if a direct trip is not desired. This provides clearing of the fault on the circuit with the failed
breaker in feeder relay breaker failure time (or bus relay 50T time; whichever is greater) instead of the
bus relay 51 time; but is limited by the sensitivity constraints of the bus relay.
Contingency Operation - Backup Protection for Feeder Relay Out-of-Service
When the relay is out of service or it has failed, OUT3 opens to signal the upstream relays providing
backup protection. OUT3 operates in a fail-safe mode; the output is closed during normal operation and
open during a relay failure. This provides backup mode signaling when the feeder relay is extracted from
the case.
Backup for relay failure can be implemented using the BUS and BACKUP preprogrammed logic schemes.
These logic schemes are described later in this section.
