Exercise 1 – Engineering
Calculating settings for transformer differential protection The transformer differential protection is a unit protection. It serves as the main protection of transformers in case of winding failure. The protective zone of a differential protection includes the transformer itself, the buswork or cables between the current transformers and the power transformer. When bushing current transformers are used for the differential IED, the protective zone does not include the bus-work or cables between the circuit breaker and the power transformer. A transformer differential protection compares the current flowing into the transformer with the current leaving the transformer. A correct analysis of fault conditions by the differential protection must take into consideration changes due to voltages, currents and phase angle changes caused by protected transformer. Traditional transformer differential protection functions required auxiliary transformers. Differential protection algorithm as implemented in the IED compensate for both the turns-ratio and the phase shift internally in the software. The differential current should theoretically be zero during normal load or external faults if the turn-ratio and the phase shift are correctly compensated. However, there are several different phenomena other than internal faults that will cause unwanted and false differential currents. The main reasons for unwanted differential currents are: • Mismatch due to varying tap changer positions • Different characteristics, loads and operating conditions of the current transformers • Zero sequence currents that only flow on one side of the power transformer • Normal magnetizing currents • Magnetizing inrush currents • Over excitation magnetizing currents The internal / external fault discriminator is a very powerful and reliable supplementary criterion to the traditional differential protection. It is recommended that this feature shall be always used (enabled) when protecting three-phase power transformers. The internal / external fault discriminator detects even minor faults, with a high sensitivity and a high speed, and at the same time discriminates with a high degree of dependability between internal and external faults.

Differential protection settings The differential protection has two groups of settings: - General settings related to the transformer data - Specific settings for the differential protection (Setting Group 1-6) In the first group you will find fundamental settings for the differential protection such as, ratings, vector group and clock number.

General setting
44. See Figure 1. Set rated values for W1, W2 and W3.
45. Set connectTypeW1 to WYE
The transformer is solidly earthed at the 145 kV side. In case of earth-fault in the 145 kV system residual current flows from the transformer. This residual current is seen as a differential current even if there is no internal transformer fault. To prevent unwanted trip at external earth-fault there is a function where the zero sequence current is eliminated from the measured transformer current. This elimination is only needed for winding 1 in this application.

Exercise 1 – Engineering
In multi-breaker arrangement there is a risk of overbiasing, if the CT ratings are much higher than the rated current of the transformer. This will result in de-sensitize the differential protection. To prevent this situation there is a possibility to reduce the bias by a factor (RatedCurrentWx/CTyRatingWx).

Multi-breaker
Our application is a single breaker application i.e. TconfigWx = No.
51. Set TconfigForW for W1, W2 and W3 to No. It is possible to adapt the differential protection according to tap-changer position. Initially we do not use the feature in this exercise.

Exercise 1 – Engineering
Differential protection specific settings IdMin During normal operation there is a ”false” differential current measured by the protection due to the following: - Deviation tap changer position compared to the nominal transformer ratio - Difference in current transformer error
Figure 373733: Pick up and tripping characteristics settings
53. Set Operation to On 54. Set SOTFMode Off (temporary, we will focus on the differential function initially)
55. Check that IDiffAlarm is 0.20 (default) 56. Check that tAlarmDelay is 10.0 s (default) 57. Set Idmin to 0.25 IB 58. Check that Endsection1 is 1.25 IB (default) 59. Check that Endsection2 is 3.0 IB (default) 60. Check that SlopSection2 is 40% (default)
At the tap position giving the lowest LV voltage the transformer ratio is 166.8/22 kV. At 1.25 times the rated power (EndSection1) the 145 kV current is: 1.25 × 80 I HV = = 346 A 3 × 166.8 This corresponds to 1.09 times the rated current. The low voltage side current is 1.25 times the rated current and thus the differential current is about 0.16 times the rated transformer current. At the tap position giving the highest LV voltage the transformer ratio is 123.2/22 kV. At 1.25 times the rated power (EndSection1) the 145 kV current is: 1.25 × 80 I HV = = 469 A 3 × 123.2 This corresponds to 1.47 times the rated current. The low voltage side current is 1.25 times the rated current and thus the differential current is about 0.22 times the rated transformer current. The current transformers class is 5P giving a maximum amplitude error of 1 % and maximum phase displacement of 60 minutes. To assure that the load current does not cause unwanted operation IdMin is set to 0.25 times the rated transformer current.
61. Check that Slop Section3 is 80% (default)
62. Set IdUnre to 5.0 IB
Page 22
IdUnre The unrestrained differential protection function is operated without any stabilization. The setting principle is that the unrestrained function shall only be able to detect internal faults. This means that the current setting shall be larger than the largest current through the transformer at external faults. The fault level for external fault is calculated to be 1.48 kA. This corresponds to 4.6 transformer rated current. In the setting there should also be consideration to the influence from fault current DC component and inrush current.

2nd and 5th harmonic The classical way to avoid tripping due to inrush currents or overexcitation is checking the amount of 2 nd and 5th harmonics in relation to the fundamental frequency.

IMinNegSeq The transformer differential protection also has external/internal fault discrimination, based on negative sequence current. The default settings of NegSeqDiffEn, IMinNegSeq and NegSeqROA are recommended.

This feature we will test later.

Check that NegSeqROA is 60 Deg (default) Open CT detection It is possible to detect and avoid tripping due to an open current circuit (one phase out of three). This function is only active after a certain time (1 min after energization) during normal load (10-110% IBias). Figure 393935: Negative sequence diff protection settings

Trip function block settings A function block for protection tripping is normally provided for each circuit breaker involved in the tripping of the fault. It provides the pulse prolongation to ensure a trip pulse of sufficient length. In this exercise we only use one trip function block. (Normally we are using the trip matrix function (TMAGGIO) to route trip signals and/or other logical output signals to different output contacts on the IED.)
