    The document discusses how transverse currents can cause busbar protection systems to block. It presents a solution of using an extended blocking function for bus tie breakers to avoid this issue. However, this solution makes the substation protection less selective when isolators are operated in parallel.

    Summary

    + Directional Criterion BBP does not block in


    case of transverse current.

    - Substation is protected less selective


    during Isolator parallel.
