An overload on a distribution zone substation transformer can be detected with:
Select one:
a. Differential protection
b. A top-oil temperature sensor, a winding temperature monitoring system.
c. An IDMT or instantaneous overcurrent relay
d. A Buchholtz relay.
An overcurrent relay or instantaneous relay or IDMT relay can detect when very large currents flows or an overload occurs.
Hence option c is correct.

A generator transformer has a magnetising current of 1.5 %. The primary winding voltage is 27 kV and the secondary voltage is 330kV. The transformer rating is 360 MVA. What is the allowable operating current differential, in terms of Amperes on the primary, that should not cause the protection to operate? Select one: a. 200.00 Amperes b. 31.08 Amperes c. 115.47 Amperes d. 66.00 Amperes
Step by step precise and concise full solution please A distribution board distributes energy to various items of plant via an installation which has a high voltage (H.V.) panel, a low voltage (L.V) panel and a transformer. The details are as follows: The H.V. panel obtains a 3-phase supply at 11 kV. The transformer circuit-breaker is equipped with 75/5A current transformers which feed a very inverse 3-poles overcurrent relay of 5-A rating. The transformer has a rating of 1000 kVA...
An on load tap changer is installed on a transformer and shares the transformer tank. The tap changer mechanism and contacts and the transformer windings are in the same oil volume. Due to mechanical wear and contact oxidisation, one tap changer contact begins to get hot ( a few hundred degrees). This fault persists for months and will eventually cause the failure of the insulation on adjacent components. What protection systems or inspection procedures might detect this developing fault? Select...
A magnetisation transient can occur when a transformer is energised. The protection scheme must not unecessarily trip the transformer by mistaking the inrush for a fault. For a large transformer the better approaches are: Select one: a. Block the protection scheme for a few seconds when the transformer is energised. b. Use a even harmonic or minimum gap time scheme. c. Time the breaker closing to reduce the inrush transient. d. Set the differential protection levels high enough so that a...
can you calculating this question and explain why? thanks A distribution network shown in Figure 3 consists of a 40-MVA and 33/22-kV step-down transformer with a reactance of 10% and two distribution lines each having a reactance of 5 Q2. The load connected to each bus is also shown in the figure. The CO-8 overcurrent relays are used to protect the system. The time-current curve of the CO-8 relay is shown in Figure 4 on page 5. Assume that the...
