5.2.3.2 Protection signal definition
The Control line setting defines which of the initiation signals are protection pickup and
trip signals and which are not. With this setting, the user can distinguish the blocking
signals from the protection signals. The Control line setting is a bit mask, that is, the lowest
bit controls the INIT_1 line and the highest bit the INIT_6 line. Some example
combinations of the Control line setting are as follows:
Table 293: Control line setting definition
prot = protection signal
other = non-protection signal
When the corresponding bit or bits in both the Control line setting and the INIT_X line
are TRUE:
•The CLOSE_CB output is blocked until the protection is reset
• If the INIT_X line defined as the protection signal is activated during the
discrimination time, the AR function goes to lockout
• If the INIT_X line defined as the protection signal stays active longer than the time
set by the Max trip time setting, the AR function goes to lockout (long trip)
•The UNSUC_RECL output is activated after a pre-defined two minutes (alarming
ground-fault).
It is emphasized that the three phases of the same protection function should be fed to the
same INIT input to the autorecloser.
5.2.4 Operation principle
The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding
parameter values are “On” and “Off”.
The reclosing operation can be enabled and disabled with the Reclosing operation setting.
This setting does not disable the function, only the reclosing functionality. The setting has
three parameter values: “On”, “External Ctl” and “Off”. The setting value “On” enables
the reclosing operation and “Off” disables it. When the setting value “External Ctl” is
selected, the reclosing operation is controlled with the RECL_ON input.

Setting the Operation setting to “Off” will prevent tripping by any
protection function!
