As per the key statistics data of IEA With electricity consumption reached to 1,164 TWh in the country till November 2019, India ranked third among the top ten electricity consuming countries across the globe.
The connection of CT on primary and secondary side is always reverse to the connection of transformer. To protect the power transformer with star-delta against fault, the type of connection of CTs should be in the delta–star connection otherwise the relay will operate when an external fault occurs due to zero sequence currents
The second generation of smart meters are known as SMETS 2. Full form of SMET is Smart Metering Equipment Technical Specifications. It is with the previous generation known as SMETS 1. SMETS 2 smart meters were introduced in 2018.
In bias differential protection for transformer, There are two basic settings required to setup the percentage biased differential protection. 1. Minimum pickup 2. The slope.
The minimum pick-up covers the transformer magnetizing current typically 1-4% of transformer rating. A pick up of 0.2 to 0.3 times the TAP is recommended for general cases.
The slope is defined by determining the potential sources of differential current.
