Some elements that can be blocked (via the BLOCK input) are distance,voltage restrained overcurrent, and directional current.There are two classes of fuse failure that occur:• Class A — Loss of one or two phases• Class B — Loss of all three phasesDifferent means of detection are required for each class. An indication of class A failures is a significant level of negative-sequence voltage, whereas an indication of class B failures is when positive sequence current is present and there is aninsignificant amount of positive sequence voltage. Also, a rapid decrease in the phase voltages magnitude from a healthyvoltage level without disturbance in current can indicate VT fuse fail conditions. These noted indications of fuse failure canalso be present when faults are present on the system, so a means of detecting faults and inhibiting fuse failuredeclarations during these events is provided.Once the fuse failure condition is declared, it is sealed-in until the cause that generated it disappears.An additional condition is introduced to inhibit a fuse failure declaration when the monitored circuit is de-energized;positive-sequence voltage and current are both below threshold levels.VT FUSE FAILURE 1 FUNCTION — Enables and disables the fuse failure feature for each source.
