Understand the difference.

Compare the meaning, drawing context and source references of two entries. A similar graphic or shared abbreviation does not establish equivalence.

BDCI

Bus differential check-zone interface

Provides the separately defined overall check-zone condition used by a bus protection scheme. A protection scheme combines measurements, decision elements and communication or trip outputs to protect a defined part of the network. A function number names a job; the scheme interface shows how that job connects to other equipment.

A distinction that matters

Check zones and discriminating zones have different roles. This reference describes the named application; it does not establish a new IEC graphical symbol, an ANSI device-function number or an exact manufacturer connection diagram.

Symbols

Bus protection isolator-replica interface

Relates measured disconnector positions to the current assignment used by the bus protection. A protection scheme combines measurements, decision elements and communication or trip outputs to protect a defined part of the network. A function number names a job; the scheme interface shows how that job connects to other equipment.
