Transformer IDMT, Differential and all Relay setting calculation

 Power transformer rating = 30 MVA

Voltage Ratio = 33/66 kV

Rated voltage (in kV) HV side = 66

Rated voltage (in kV) LV side = 33

Vector Group = YNyn0

CT ratio (HV) side = 400/1 A

CT ratio (LV) side = 600/1 A

Minimum Tap = – 10%

Maximum Tap = +10%

% Impedance = 10

Full Load current HV side = MVA/ voltage rating * √3

=30*1000000/ 66000*√3

= 262.743 A

CTR= 400/1 A

Current on CT secondary = 262.74/400

= 0.656 A

Ratio Compensation = 1/0.656 = 1.524

Full Load current LV side = MVA/ voltage rating * √3

=30*1000000/ 33000*√3

= 524.87 A

CTR= 600/1 A

Current on CT secondary = 524.87/600

= 0.874 A

Ratio Compensation = 1/0.874 = 1.144

Initial setting = 0.2 x In (full tap changer range -10 % to +10 % )

Slope 1 = 30 % (full tap change range that is 10+10 =20 +10% extra bias)

Irest 1: = 0.67 (Starting point of slope 1 )

half of the rated CT secondary ,for extra stabilization additional margin

Slope 2 = 2 times slope1 + 10 % safety margin

= 70 %

Irest 2 = 2.5 (starting value of slope 2)

Differential High set = 7.5

Transformer short ckt. current = FLA/ % Z

= 262.7/0.1= 2620 A

CTR = 400/1 A 2620/400= 6.55 this setting must be greater than the transformer inrush current

51 Relay setting (IDMT) Calculation

110 % of full load amps

Under voltage protection

PT ratio = 66000 kV/3/110 V /3

Phase to phase Voltage = 110V

Phase to neutral voltage = 63.5 V

77% of 110 V = 84.7 V

Delay = 3 sec (to Avoid unwanted tripping)

Over voltage protection

110% OF 110 V= 121 V

Delay = 0 sec

Over fluxing protection

V/F = 110/50 = 2.2 =1 P.U

For 1.10 P.U V/F = 2.2 *1.1*50= 121 Volts Phase to phase
