The start of the function is initiated:via the device-internal protection function and/or externally (via binary
inputs or interface, for example, GOOSE). The start can be done 1-pole or 3-pole. Figure 6-356and
Figure 6-357 showing the functionality.
Internal Start
By default, each device-internal protection stage, which has to control the local circuit breaker starts the
circuit-breaker failure protection. The function is started by the tripping of the protection stage. In case of
phase-selective tripping, the start will also be phase-selective. In addition, circuit-breaker failure protection is
started with 3-pole tripping of automatic reclosing (AREC). In the default setting, the starting signal
Internal start (see Figure 6-356) is held when the pickup signal has a falling edge or the protection
function has tripped. The CBFP function can in this case only dropout if the CB is detected to be open. This is
detected using the current flow or circuit-breaker auxiliary contact criterion. If necessary, the CBFP function
can also dropout when the pickup signal has a falling edge or the protection function trips (internal starting
signal is not held).
Where required, individual protection stages or protection functions can be routed so that they are excluded
as starting source. If all device-internal starting sources are excluded in this manner, the start must be initi-
ated externally.
Routing of the internal starting sources takes place in the protection function groups via the Circuit breaker
interaction entry (for this, see 2.1 Function Embedding in the Device , DIGSI 5 Project Tree (excerpt)).

External Start
The parameter Start via binary input is used to set whether the external start is initiated by a 1-
channel or 2-channel signal. The required routing of the input signals is compared with the setting. If a routing
is missing, an error message is generated. The Health signal changes to the state War ni ng.

Figure 6-357 Configuration of the External Start of the CBFP Function
In 1-channel mode, start for 1-pole tripping is initiated only with the binary input signals >Start pole A,
>Start pole B, and >Start pole C. In the case of 3-pole tripping, start is initiated only with the input
signal >Start 3-pole (see Figure 6-358).
In 2-channel operation, to initiate the start, the binary input signal >Release 1-pole must be activated in
case of the 1-pole start, or >Release 3-pole in case of the 3-pole start. In the default setting, the internal
starting signals External start Lx and External start 3pol drop out immediately when the binary
input signals have a falling edge (see Figure 6-358). If necessary, the internal start signal can be held. In this
case, the start remains active when the binary input signals have a falling edge.
The input signals are monitored to avoid an unwanted pickup of the function.
In this function, circuit-breaker auxiliary contacts are not used for determining the CB position.
The position is determined (pole-selective) via the double-point indications Position Lx (from the
Circuit breaker function block).
The double-point indication 3-pole position (from the Circuit breaker function block) is used to
determine whether all 3 poles of the circuit breaker are closed.
If the double-point indications are not routed, an error message is issued. The ready signal also changes to
the state War ni ng.
A detected static disturbed position (not an intermediate position) has the effect that the circuit breaker auxil-
iary contact criterion is not used (the signals Aux.co.crit. CB Clsd Lx are inactive).

Figure 6-361 Circuit-Breaker Auxiliary-Contact Criterion
Pickup/Dropout
After the start, a check is performed whether the circuit breaker or the individual circuit-breaker pole is closed.
The current-flow criterion and the circuit-breaker auxiliary-contact criterion are available for this purpose.
Even if the circuit-breaker auxiliary contact criterion is permitted, preference is given to the fulfilled current-
flow criterion because it is the most reliable criterion for determining whether the CB or CB pole is closed.
This means that the CB or CB pole is considered to be closed if it is closed according to the current-flow crite-
rion but, at the same time, open according to the circuit-breaker auxiliary contact criterion.
If no current is flowing at the moment of start, the function can only pick up via the circuit-breaker auxiliary-
contact criterion. For this purpose, the circuit-breaker auxiliary contacts must be permitted as criterion. When
the current begins to flow after the start, the function switches over to the current-flow criterion.
If the circuit-breaker or a circuit-breaker pole is detected to be closed, the function picks up.
The pickup starts a time delay (see Delay/Tripping). While the delay is running, the system checks continu-
ously whether the circuit breaker or a CB pole has opened. In the default setting, the opening of the CB is
checked on the basis of the currently valid criterion, which is normally the current-flow criterion because it is
preferred. If until expiration of the time delay, no current flow above the set threshold values has been
detected, the circuit-breaker auxiliary-contact criterion becomes effective.
The function has also a setting in which dropout is only possible if both criteria detect in parallel the CB or CB
pole to be open (dropout with auxiliary contact and current-flow criterion).
In the default setting, the internal starting signal is held (see Figure 6-356 and Figure 6-358). This means that
dropout is controlled solely by the current-flow or circuit-breaker auxiliary-contact criterion. If dropout is also to
occur on the falling edge of the starting signal (that is, when the pickup signal has a falling edge or the protec-
tion function trips), holding of the start signal must be disabled.

Figure 6-362 Pickup/Dropout of the CBFP
Delay/Tripping
In a first step, tripping at the local CB can be repeated. Tripping is repeated after expiration of the settable
delay T1. You can set various T1 times for a 1-pole and multipole start. In case of a 1-pole start, tripping can
be repeated in a 1-pole or 3-pole way depending on the setting.
Time delay T2 (backup tripping) can be started in parallel with time T1 or after expiration of time T1. You can
set various T2 times for a 1-pole and multipole start.
If the assigned 1-pole period is initially started by a 1-pole start and a multiphase short circuit and multiphase
start occur subsequently, the corresponding multiphase period is also started so that the 2 periods run in
parallel. Tripping is determined by the period that expires first.
When there is a 1-pole start with 3-pole trip repeat, the 3-pole T2 time is started.
If time delay T2 expires without a dropout of the function, a circuit-breaker failure is assumed, and the backup
tripping signal Trip T2 is generated. This tripping is always 3-pole. If the device is equipped with a protec-
tion interface, a transfer trip signal can be sent to the opposite end if necessary (see chapter Protection inter-
face 3.5.3.1 Overview of Functions).
If the >CB defect input signal is valid, any repetition of the trip signal is suppressed, and the backup tripping
signal T2 is generated immediately (without delay). The corresponding binary input must be activated for at
least 20 ms before the input signal >CB defect becomes valid.
The Minimum operate time parameter defines the minimum duration for tripping the function. In contrast
to other protection functions, the parameter is set within its own function. As a result, the setting is inde-
pendent of the identically named comprehensive parameter that is set in the Device settings.

Figure 6-364 Circuit-Breaker Failure Protection with External Pole-Selective Start, Pole-Selective Tripping
Repetition, and 3-Pole Tripping (T2)
Routing: Configuration of Internal Starting Sources (Internal Protection Function)
Configuration of the internal starting sources takes place in the protection function groups via the Circuit
breaker interaction entry (for this see 2.1 Function Embedding in the Device , Figure 2-4).
By default, the function can be started by any tripping of the internal protection functions, which control the
local circuit breaker. Depending on the specific application, it may be necessary to exclude certain device-
internal protection functions from starting the CBFP. For instance, busbar disconnection following a local
circuit-breaker failure may be undesirable in the case of load-shedding applications or ground faults in
isolated/resonant-grounded systems.
Where a start exclusively from external sources is required, all internal protection functions must be routed so
that they are excluded as starting source.
Parameter: Start via binary input
Tripping of the high and low voltage side CB on the transformer: If only one of the 2 CBs trips, there is
no more current flow.
Tripping of protection functions whose tripping decision is not based on current measurement in combi-
nation with low-load situations.
If the minimum fault-clearing time has top priority, Siemens recommends setting the time to 0. This
setting causes initiation of the retrip immediately upon the start. The drawback is that a defect of the 1st
trip circuit is not detected.
With a small time delay of, for instance, 50 ms, the defect of the 1st trip circuit can be detected based on
the analysis of the fault record.
With a long time delay which reliably ensures the dropout of the CBFP with the CB open, the rising edge
indication of the trip repeat Retrip T1 is a sure signal for a fault in the 1st trip circuit. The following
example shows how this time is determined.
EXAMPLE
Determining the T1 Time that Reliably Ensures the Dropout of the CBFP with the CB Open:
Time of device binary output (when tripping is
caused by the device-internal protection)
5 ms
CB inherent time up to power interruption 2 periods (assumed rated frequency =50 Hz)
Dropout time of CBFP function 1 period
Subtotal 65 ms
Safety Factor 2
Total (time T1) 130 ms
EXAMPLE
Different T1 times, depending on whether the start was 1-pole or 3-pole:
The protection tripping can be 1-pole. 1-pole tripping results in a 1-pole AR. The trip repeat prompted by the
CBFP should be 3-pole on principle.
Under these circumstances, the T1 time can be set short (for example 50 ms) in a 3-pole start. The T1 time
for 1-pole start, however, must be set to the full clearance time (for example 130 ms) because the two fault-
free phases are to be tripped only in case of an authentic circuit-breaker failure.
Parameter: Delay T2 1-pole, Delay T2 3-pole
