This paper presents a new wavelet-based busbar differential protection algorithm, named as 87BW function. The instantaneous current-based differential protection fundamentals are taken into account and the well-known 1-out-of-1 and 2-out-of-2 tripping logics are mapped into the wavelet domain. Operating and restraint wavelet coefficients energy of currents are computed, regarding station configuration and bus zones boundaries. Thereby, the proposed 87BW function can be properly used in both static and dynamic busbar configuration. Its performance was evaluated through EMTP-based simulations of faults in a 230 kV power substation with double bus single breaker configuration. The obtained results reveal it provides ultra-high-fast trip for internal and evolving external-to-internal faults, guaranteeing security for normal through-load and external faults as well, even in the case of early and severe current transformer saturation.
