Transformer Protection
• The ratings of transformers used in transmission and distribution
systems range from a few kVA to several hundred MVA.
• The type of protection scheme used depends on the size and
importance of the transformer in the power system.
• For small transformers, simple fuses are employed.
• Overcurrent relays employed for medium size transformers.
• Differential protection is required for the protection of large
transformers.

Harmonic Restraint• There is an inrush current due to the initial energizing of thetransformer.
• This inrush current flows only in the primary winding and hencethe relay may consider it as internal fault.
• Harmonic contents in inrush current are different from normalcurrent.
• The harmonic restraint unit filters out the second harmonic currentpresent in the inrush current.
• This filtered current will be made to flow through the restrain coilof the relay.
• Hence the relay operation under magnetizing inrush current can beprevented.

Protection Against Stator Faults
![Page 15: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Phase Fault Protection (L – L)
![Page 17: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Protection Against Stator Inter Turn Faults
![Page 18: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Protection Against Unbalanced Loading
• Unbalanced loading of the stator winding produces negative
sequence currents in it.
• This gives rise to additional heating of the stator winding.
• A negative sequence relay is used to sense this problem and hence
the alternator is protected.
![Page 19: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Protection Against Overloading of Alternator
• Normally all generators are designed with a capability of supplying some
additional load for some period of time to get additional power from the
machine in case of loss of other generators.
• This may be associated with a loss of voltage which leads to an increase of
current in the stator.
• Voltage restrained IDMT relays are used for protection.
• Relay operation is possible if both overcurrent and under-voltage elements
are operating simultaneously.
![Page 20: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Protection Against Failure of Prime Mover
• In case of turbine failure, the alternator does not get mechanical
power.
• But it is continuously connected to grid and becomes a synchronous
motor with field excitation existing in the rotor.
• Now the machine undesirably starts to run as synchronous motor and
takes power from the grid.
• This is prevented by using a reverse power relay which is similar to a
directional current relay.
![Page 21: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Protection Against Overvoltage
• It is unsafe to run the alternator for long time with overvoltage across
its terminals.
• An overvoltage relay is used to sense this problem.
• This relay will trip the C.B. when the voltage exceeds 110 – 130% of
rated voltage.
• Generator main C.B and exciter C.B must be tripped to save the
system from this overvoltage problem.
![Page 22: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Protection Against Rotor Faults
![Page 23: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Loss of Excitation Relay
• When a synchronous generator loses its excitation, it speeds up
slightly and run as an induction generator.
• Instead of delivering reactive power, it absorbs the reactive power
from the system as much as 2 to 4 times the rated current.
• Stator draws magnetizing current from the supply and it causes the
stator to get overheated.
• Rotor is overheated quickly due to the induced currents in it.
• An under current relay can be used to identify this fault.
• An impedance or mho type relay can also be used to find this type of
fault.
![Page 24: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Rotor Earth Fault Protection
• If more than one earth fault occur, shortcircuit between the faulty points on thewinding occurs.
• This may cause unbalance magnetic field andmechanical damage may occur in the bearingof the machine.
• During earth fault in the field winding, the DCvoltage across the bridge rectifier will beapplied across the voltage relay.
• The relay will pick up and trips the circuitbreaker.
![Page 25: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Field Suppression
• It is a method of discharging stored energy in the field through a
resistor.
• Whenever a fault occurs in the alternator winding, its C.B is tripped.
• But fault remains there since the voltage is induced in the generator
with the help of field.
• Hence the field C.B needs to be opened and the stored energy in the
field winding is to be discharged through a resistor.
• This discharge resistor is to be connected in parallel to the field
winding before the field C.B is opened.
![Page 26: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
AC Motor Protection
• HRC or rewirable fuse is normally used as protective device formotors.
• Rewirable fuse is used for motors ranging from FHP to 5 HP.
• HRC fuses are used for motors ranging above 5 HP.
• But HRC fuse cannot provide protection for overloading, singlephasing and earth faults.
• Thermal overloading relays are used for protection againstoverloading.
• For high capacity induction motors, a comprehensive motorprotection is used.
![Page 27: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Protection Scheme for Motors
![Page 28: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Short Circuit Protection
• Attracted armature type relay is connected in each phase.
• Starting current during DOL starting may be 4-5 times full loadcurrent.
• Normally the fault current will be 7 times the full load current.
• Hence the relays are set to operate for currents of 5-7 times full loadcurrent.
![Page 29: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Earth Fault Protection
• Earth fault relays (IDMT type) with a setting of 10% to 40% ofthe rated current is used.
• This is a single relay for all the 3 phases.
Earth Fault Protection
• IDMT type overcurrent relays are connected in each phase with
setting of 110% - 125% of rated current.
![Page 30: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Stalling Protection
• Due to some mechanical problem or overload, the motors mayrefuse to start.
•Motor will draw a heavy current for an indefinite period. This isreally dangerous and undesirable.
• Definite time relays with a current setting equal to the startingcurrent at stall are used to protect the motors for this case.
![Page 31: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Single Phasing Protection• It is undesirable to run the motor when one of the phases isdisconnected.
• It is called single phasing and it needs to be identified so that themotor should be disconnected from supply.
• It is done by single phasing preventer circuits.
![Page 32: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Undervoltage Protection
• Operation of motor on undervoltage generally cause overcurrent
which can be sensed by overload devices or temperature sensitive
devices.
• But still a separate undervoltage relay is used to protect against a 3
phase voltage drop.
• A time delay is given for the relay operation to prevent tripping by a
transient voltage drop.
![Page 33: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Phase Reversal Relay• Phase reversal occurs when the supply connections are changed afterrepairs. The motor will run in wrong direction.
• In applications like elevators, cranes & hoists, the phase reversal isdangerous.
• A phase reversal relay working based on the electromagneticprinciple is used.
• For a correct phase sequence (RYB), the disc present in the relayproduces a positive torque so that its contacts are closed. Hencemotor runs.
•When phase reversal happens (RBY), the disc present in the relayproduces an opposite torque so that its contacts are opened.
• Hence the magnetic coil of the started is de-energized or circuitbreaker can be tripped.

Busbar
• A busbar is a metallic strip or bar that conducts electricity insidea substation.
• It is made of copper or aluminium.
![Page 36: Unit III Apparatus Protection · Differential Protection of Transformers •It is used for the protection of large power transformers having ratings of 5 MVA and above. •This scheme](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5eb391f95027d604895cffd1/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Busbar Faults
• Failure of insulation due to material deterioration.
• Failure of circuit breaker
• Earth fault
• Flashover due to overvoltages
• Errors in the operation of switchgear
• Accidents due to foreign bodies falling on the busbars
• Flashover due to heavily polluted insulator

Distance Relays Vs Overcurrent Relays
• The fault current depends on the type of fault and sourceimpedance.
• If overcurrent relays are used in transmission lines, it will tripthe C.B irrespective of the location of fault.
• Hence a relay which operates based on the location of fault isrequired.
• Location is identified by the ratio of voltage to current(selectivity).
