Title:
METHOD OF IDENTIFYING A SHORT-CIRCUIT LIKE EVENT IN A CIRCUIT BREAKER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/073929
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Described is a method of identifying a short-circuit (SC) like event in a circuit breaker (CB). The method comprises sampling an incoming current to the CB to determine a maximum value of a slope of a curve of the incoming current. The method includes sampling the incoming current again before a level of the incoming current reaches a predetermined, preset, selected, or calculated SC threshold value THSC for the CB. The method involves determining from the sampled incoming current that a value of the slope of the incoming current has changed from its maximum slope value to a lower slope value to thereby determine that the incoming current is indicative of a SC like event and does not comprise a real SC event.
