Guidelines of transformer differential stability check Transformer above 2 MVA are normally provided with differential protection scheme. The relay can be of static type(DTH31- Alsthom) or numerical type( 7 UT- Sag ) The relays have to be tested as per the procedure mentioned in manuals.The procedure mention below enables the testing engineer to confirm the correctness wiring. Expected short circuit current can be calculated from the % impedance of the transformer. e.g. Consider a transformer of 10 MVA, 132 KV /11 KV, % impedance – 13 % Calculated primary full load current…
