Section 12
Control

The main objectives of the circulating current method for parallel voltage control are:
1.
Regulate the busbar or load voltage to the preset target value.
2.
Minimize the circulating current in order to achieve optimal sharing of the
reactive load between parallel transformers.
The busbar voltage UB is measured individually for each transformer in the parallel
group by its associated TR8ATCC function. These measured values will then be
exchanged between the transformers, and in each TR8ATCC block, the mean value of
all UB values will be calculated. The resulting value U
IED instead of UB for the voltage regulation, thus assuring that the same value is used
by all TR8ATCC functions, and thereby avoiding that one erroneous measurement in
one transformer could upset the voltage regulation. At the same time, supervision of
the VT mismatch is also performed.
Figure

shows an example with two transformers connected in parallel. If
transformer T1 has higher no load voltage it will drive a circulating current which adds
to the load current in T1 and subtracts from the load current in T2.
