The Council of Constance (1417) modified the rules of the conclave to such an extent that the cardinals of the three "obediences" took part in it as well as six prelates from each of the five nations.

Once the conclave begins the door is not again opened until the election is announced, except to admit a cardinal who is late in arriving.
