Time discrimination
Another method of assuring discrimination
in the event of almost identically high shortcircuit currents at the installation points is
time discrimination. The upstream breaker
requires time-delay short-circuit releases,
so that in the event of a fault only the downstream breaker isolates the part of the system affected by the fault.
Both the release delays and the operating
currents of the short-circuit releases are
graded.

Function:
A short-circuit at point K1 is
sensed by Q4, Q2 and Q1.
When the ZSS is activated,
Q1 and Q2 are temporarily
blocked by Q4 and Q2 respectively.
As Q4 receives no blocking
signal, it trips after 10 ms.
A short-circuit at point K2 is
sensed only by Q1; as Q1
receives no blocking signal,
it trips after 50 ms. Without
ZSS, tripping would not take
place until after 150 ms.

Discrimination miniature circuit-breakers
In distribution networks without any fuses, mcbs provide selectivity between themselves within close limits. This is dependent o
peak current of the downstream mcb and the tripping current of the upstream mcb.
The following table specifies up to which short-circuit current in kA, discrimination is provided between mcbs connected
in series at 230 V AC.
