Numerical Relay Protection Of Transformer

INTRODUCTION
Transformers are a critical and expensive component of the power system. Due to the long lead time for repair and replacement of transformers, a major goal of transformer protection is limiting the damage to a faulted transformer. Numerical relay protection of transformer is an advanced method of protection. The main aim of this project is to protect the transformer from the faulty conditions with in a short span of time. The type of protection for the transformers varies depending on the application of the transformer.

Numerical Relay Protection Of Transformer DIFFERENTIAL PROTECTION: Differential protection is a unit-type protection for a specified zone or piece of equipment. It is based on the fact that it is only in the case of faults internal to the zone that the differential current (difference between input and output currents) will be high. However, the differential current can sometimes be substantial even without an internal fault. This is due to certain characteristics of current transformers (different saturation levels, nonlinearities) measuring the input and output currents, and of the power transformer being protected. It is based on the fact that any fault within an electrical equipment would cause the current entering it to be different from the current leaving it. By comparing the two currents either in magnitude or in phase or in both, fault can be determined.

NEED FOR PROTECTION:


Transformer is an extream device in power system which has 99.99% of efficiency. Improved power transformer protection using numerical relays, Large power transformers belong to a class of very expensive and vital components in electric power systems. If a power transformer experiences a fault, it is necessary to take the transformer out of service as soon as possible so that the damage is minimized. The costs associated with repairing a damaged transformer may be very high. So there is a necessity of protection of transformer.

NEED FOR PROTECTION:


Here in this project numerical Relay ( Microprocessor Relay) plays a vital role to protect the large rating of power transformers. Fault detection and correction is necessary for the safe operation of transformer. Protection of large power transformers is perhaps the most challenging problem in the power system relaying. Here we are using numerical relay for the protection of Power Transformer.

WORKING:
OVER LOADING PROTECTION: Initially the transformer is operated under normal condition the relay operation is absent. The transformer has a maximum safe current rating value for certain load, if the load is increased on the transformer then the load current is also increased. If the load current is exceeds the maximum rated current of the transformer then the relay will operate and the transformer is isolate from the main supply.

DIFFERENTIAL PROTECTION: At normal operating condition the differential currents of CTs is zero. So here in this case the differential relay will not operate. As we know that the differential relay is operate only for internal fault condition. If the fault occurred in internal zone(between transformer and CTs) then a differential current flows in the relay, the relay is tripped and isolate the transformer from the mains.

Numerical Relay Protection Of Transformer ADVANTAGES: 1. It is the simplest form of transformer protection. 2. It detects the incipient faults at a stage much earlier than is possible with other forms of protection. DISADVANTAGES: 1. It can only be the used with oil immersed transformer equipped with conservator tanks. 2. The device can detect only faults below oil level in the transformer. Therefore, separate protection is needed for connecting cables. CONCLUSION: Relay control output circuits of a much higher power. Safety is increased. Protective relays are essential for keeping faults in the system isolated and keep equipment from being damage.

SCOPE:
This project aimed at providing protection to the transformer from numerical relay. This project can be used for many faults which are sensed by current. For overload protection of transformers this project is to be modified by using numerical relay. The actual operating current of transformer is monitored continuously and that is compared with the safe value of current limit. This project not only provides overload protection but also provides different charecteristics protection of transformer protection over wide range of faults whose presence can be known by numerical relay.
