When the circulating current is known, it is possible to calculate a no-load voltage
for each transformer in the parallel group. To do that the magnitude of the
circulating current in each bay, is first converted to a voltage deviation, U

decreasing the impact of the circulating current in TR8ATCC control calculations.
It should be noted that U

currents.
Now the magnitude of the no-load voltage for each transformer can be
approximated with:

This value for the no-load voltage is then simply put into the voltage control
function for single transformer. There it is treated as the measured busbar voltage,
and further control actions are taken as described previously in section
voltage control for a single
can be summarized as follows.
For the transformer producing/receiving the circulating current, the calculated no-
load voltage will be greater/smaller than the measured voltage U
calculated no-load voltage will then be compared with the set voltage USet. A
steady deviation which is outside the outer deadband will result in ULOWER or
URAISE being initiated alternatively. In this way the overall control action will
always be correct since the position of a tap changer is directly proportional to the
transformer no-load voltage. The sequence resets when U
deadband at the same time as the calculated no-load voltages for all transformers in
the parallel group are inside the outer deadband.
In parallel operation with the circulating current method, different USet values for
individual transformers can cause the voltage regulation to be unstable. For this
reason, the mean value of USet for parallel operating transformers can be
automatically calculated and used for the voltage regulation. This is set On/Off by
setting parameter OperUsetPar. The calculated mean USet value is shown on the
local HMI as a service value USETPAR under Main menu/Test/Function status/
