How relay used for protection purpose?

Relay are operated by small current /voltage connected to Secondary side of Current Transformer and /or Voltage Transformer. The signal stimulates the magnetic substance nearby with the attracting force. This closes or opens the circuit being used in protection purpose.


What is the definition of differential relay and how does it function?

In power transformer, a differential relay is a relay that verifies the balance of current between the primary and the secondary face of a transformer. It is also employed in other components of the power system like in protecting cables. Differential relay is also called a unit protection.


Which instrument transformer mostly used in relays?

Both Current and Potential Transformers are used for relays according to the working of relay.


What is difference between isolation transformer and earth protection relay?

An isolation transformer is a mutual transformer having a voltage ratio of 1:1, so that the secondary circuit is electrically isolated from the primary circuit, yet subject to the same voltage.An earth protection relay is a category of protective relay that responds to an earth fault monitored by a current transformer (CT). In the event of an earth fault being detected by the CT, the relay with activate the trip circuit to a circuit breaker which will then disconnect the fault.


What is a function of a Buchholz relay?

A Buchholz relay is designed to detect a failing oil-filled power transformer. It will automatically disconnect the transformer and produce an alarm signal.

What is CT operated electronic relay?

CT (Current Transformer ) is essential whether is electronic relay or electromagnetic relay. A relay requires the CT to sense the line current.


Explain differancnce between instrument current transformer and measuring current transformer?

Current transformer is a device used to measure the flow of current through a power system and the measured current is inputted to a protective relay system. It is used to detect system malfunction. Current transducer is a device used to measure AC and DC current based on the halt-effect technology.


What is defrential protection relay?

I am going to assume that you are asking about a differential relay. It is basically just that- it compare two different sources and will trip at a set value value of the difference. These can be directional as well. A couple of examples are transformer protective relays and bus differential. A transformer relay will measure the amount of current coming into the transformer and the amount of current going out. If there is a disparity due to an internal fault the relay will trip the supply source and deenergize the transformer. Same for the Bus differential.


What is the reason for using a neutral current transformer on a transformer?

A current transformer is primarily used at the neutral point of a transformer for earth fault protection. A neutral current transformer will measure any ground fault current which will essentially flow from the star point of the transformer. A fault-detection device other devices is connected to the current transformer and, if the fault current exceeds a certain trigger value, the fault-detection device will give a trip command to an earth-fault relay to disconnect the supply of electricity to the transformer.

What are the disadvantages of a double wound transformer?

There is no disadvantage with a current transformer -it does exactly what it's supposed to do, that is:reduce the current flowing in the primary circuit to a value that can be handled by its burden (ammeter or protective relay).electrically-isolate its secondary circuit from the primary circuit.

Dear all what direct consequences can be from Current transformer on generator with respect to differential protection relay?

CT's are used as inputs to the differential. If the CT is bad, or it is not wired to the differential correctly, it will cause differential current to be seen by the relay, resulting in a trip.


Why you use transformer in clap switch and why not battery?

A device used to transfer electric energy from one circuit to another, especially a pair of multiply wound, inductively coupled wire coils that effect such a transfer with a change in voltage, current, phase, or other electric characteristic.The relay contact is connected to the power line and hence turns on/off any electrical appliance connected all the way through relay.For power supply, we have made 12Volt eliminator with the help of Transformer T1, Diode D1 and capacitor C1.It is a half wave rectifier.


What is the difference between protective current transformer and metering currrent transformer?

Usually nothing. The only difference is what it is connected to and operates. The leads from the current transformer could power a meter for remote indication or a protective relay to trip the system offline.
