GEK-45307 TRANSFORMER DIFFERENTIAL RELAYS PERCENTAGE AND HARMONIC RESTRAINT INTRODUCTION Relays of the STD type are transformer differential relays provided with the features of percentage restraint. A static decision unit controls a small telephone type relay Percentage restraint permits accurate discrimination between internal and external faults high while harmonic restraint enables the relay to distinguish, by the between...
100% Transformer KVA (Line KY) Actually this calculation does not mean that all windings will necessarily carry these load currents continuously. This is only convenient of calculating the currents in other windings In proportion to their voltage ratings. This is the requirement for selecting the relay tap setting so that the relay will not operate for any external fault.

These multiples should This limitation is a result of the voltage be calculated on the basis of fault current.
It should be recognized that pickup current flows not only through current transformer but also through one of the primary windings of the through current restraint. However, compared to the operating energy, this quantity of restraint is so small it may assumed to be zero.
OPERATING UNIT The primary functioning of the relay is a state amplifier whose controls a simple telephone relay. The sense ampllfler is shown In Fig. 10 and as a large rectangle. The amplifier consists of many electronic components mounted on a printed circuit card in the top half of the relay. This printed card is installed in an eight-prong printed card design base.
