A circuit breaking apparatus (100) comprises a circuit breaker (110), a motor drive system (120), and a controller (150). The circuit breaker (110) is electrically connectable to a power line (115). The motor drive system (120) is mechanically coupled to the circuit breaker (110) and configured to operate the circuit breaker (110) such as to perform a movement including at least an opening movement from a closed position to an open position, thereby electrically interrupting the power line (115). The controller (150) includes a model (155) of at least one of the motor drive system (120) and the circuit breaker (110).The controller (150) is configured to receive reference travel curve information (200) of the movement; generate actuator information (210) from the reference travel curve information (200) based on the model (155); and output the actuator information (210) to the motor drive system (120) to control a travel curve via model-based control.

Examples of operating an Intelligent Electronic Device (IED) during power swings, are described. In an example, voltage measurements for a phase is received and sampled. Root mean square (RMS) values of the voltage samples is calculated based on the voltage measurements. Delta quantities for each phase are calculated based on the RMS values. Each of the RMS values and delta quantities are associated with respective sampling instants. In response to a delta quantity being greater than a predefined threshold, a peak delta quantity is detected. A time interval between a sampling instant associated with the peak delta quantity and a sampling instant associated with a first delta quantity is determined. Based on a comparison of the time interval with a threshold time, a disturbance condition may be detected as a power swing and consequently, fault detection at the IED may be blocked.
