Protection Relay Tutorial Overview

The document discusses protection components and current transformers. It contains questions about differential protection relays used for transformers and motors, and non-unit protection relays used for radial networks. It also discusses the functions of current transformers to step down primary current and isolate secondary equipment, and provides examples of calculating secondary currents from primary currents for different rated current transformers.

Tutorial 4

Protection
Question 1 - (Page 4-2 and 4-3)

i) Unit Protection
• Differential Protection Relay for transformer & generator & motor
• Solkor R for cable feeder

ii) Non-Unit Protection


• DTL & IDMTL O/C & balanced E/F protection relays for radial network
Question 2 - (Page 4-3)

Three basic protection components of a non-unit protection


• Current transformers
• Protection relays
• Trip coils (solenoids) of circuit breakers
Question 3 – (Page 4-5)

Two functions of current transformers


• Reduce or step down the primary current
• Isolate the connected secondary equipment like protection relays from the
high voltage in the primary
Question 4 - (Page 4-6)
CT 1: 300/5 A, 5P20, 15 VA
CT 2: 300/1 A, 5P20, 15 VA

• The difference is in the rated secondary current Is of 5A & 1A


• Both CTs have the same Accuracy Limit Primary (ALP) current, i.e.,
ALP = rated primary current x accuracy limit factor
= 300 A x 20
= 6 kA
Question 6

a) One application where DTL relay is used instead of IDMTL relay


In systems where fault levels at various locations do not vary greatly

b) One application where IDMTL relay is used instead of DTL relay


In systems where the relay is required to operate in the shortest time for a
large fault current
Question 8

For 60/5 A current transformer:

IP (A) IS (A)
24 2
60 5
120 10

IS
IP = × Rated primary curent
Rated secondary current
Question 9
For 100/5 A current transformer:

Primary Current IP (A) Secondary current IS (A)


50 2.5
100 5
200 10
500 25
1000 50
IP
IS = × Rated secondary curent
Rated primary current
