Understanding Circuit Breaker Discrimination by madhan_22 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Protection discrimination, also called selectivity, is the coordination of automatic protection devices to ensure that a fault is cleared only by the protection device immediately upstream of the fault. Total discrimination means the downstream device trips for all fault currents while the upstream device remains closed. Partial discrimination means both devices may trip for high fault currents. Discrimination is important to minimize disruption from faults and ensure continuity of service, especially in in
