DIGITAL DIFFERENTIAL RELAYS FOR TRANSFORMER PROTECTION USING WALSH SERIES AND LEAST SQUARES ESTIMATORS

Differential Protection. The fundamental principle of differential protection: sum of the currents entering a device through normal paths should be zero: Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL). If the currents enter (or leave) through abnormal paths, namely fault paths, then the sum of the currents through normal paths will not be zero. .

    2. Differential Protection The fundamental principle of differential protection: sum of the currents entering a device through normal paths should be zero: Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL). If the currents enter (or leave) through abnormal paths, namely fault paths, then the sum of the currents through normal paths will not be zero.

    4. Problems in transformer differential protection: inrush current, CT inaccuracy, CT saturation, over-excitation. These problems produce fault trips (fault alarm when there isnt any trip) or no alarm when there is a trip in transformer protection function

    5. DIFFERENTIAL RELAY IMPLEMENTATION: Current Sensor (CT): converts large amounts of current to small amounts Data Acquisition System: gathering data Filter: anti aliasing Pre-processor: scaling and so on Estimator: estimating peak & phase Decision Maker (Classifier): fault/no fault

    6. Effect of CT Saturation on a Sinusoidal Current:

    7. WE HAVE USED TWO METHODS: FOR ESTIMATING PEAK AND PHASE OF INPUT WAVE.

    8. Walsh coefficients :

    9. Walsh Series (Ctd): W=A * F F=A-1*W where F=[ F0 F1 F2 F3 F4 F5 F6 F7 F8] A-1=AT

    10. Least Squares : A*X = B E = A*X B = LPI(A) * B LPI(A) =

    11. Sampling: 12 point window (for half cycle estimation) or 24 points (for full cycle estimation) with 24 sample/cycle sampling system

    12. Least square frequncy response for fundamental frequency

    31. Summary A digital differential relay for transformer protection was presented. Two estimator systems: Walsh series and least squares algorithms were formulated and designed. The differential protection decision maker subsystem was introduced. Current signals harmonic components and second harmonic restraint concept were utilized in decision maker subsystem.

    32. Conclusion In a practical case study, the designed relay performance was tested under three real circumstances: external fault, internal fault and inrush current. It was shown -using graphs and illustrations- that the presented relay issues trip alarm for transformer internal fault, and does not issue trip alarm for external fault and inrush current situations.

    33. Conclusion (Ctd) It were seen that both estimation algorithms perform their job correctly. Walsh series acts better than least squares algorithm, especially on second harmonic estimation. An anti alias filter (for example a Butterworth one) will improve response of the estimator.
