Assessment #: 2B

Assessment type: Report

Weighting: 25%

Total marks: 100 marks

Please complete your answers on the assessment cover page document available on Moodle.

out.

Question 1: (15 marks)


The single-line diagram below is a portion of a power system, with specifications given:

The data of the example is as follows:


• CT ratio: 1000/1 A
• Minimum current at which the relay is desired to operate = 900 A
• Overload withstand = 10% above nominal current
• Desired operating time for a fault current of 8000 A is 2.0 seconds.
• High set instantaneous unit should operate at 12,500 A (range 400 –2000% in steps of
100%).
• IDMT relay (normal inverse) with a standard curve is used.

b) TMS
c) PSM

Question 2: (15 marks)


Explain what factors should be considered in the specifications of auxiliary CTs.

Question 3: (20 marks)

and there is no turn correction.
What is the minimum permissible magnetizing impedance at the limit of performance of the CT, i.e.
@ 20a secondary current with derived burden?

Question 4: (15 marks)


What are the advantages of numerical (digital) relaying?

Question 5: (10 marks)


What are the essential requirements for PLUG SETTING of IDMT relay?

Question 6: (15marks)

Question 7: (10 marks)


Assume that a CT has a rated current ratio of 500/5 A. The impedance of the secondary wiring is Z2
= 0.424 Ω and the burden impedance is Zb = 0.351 Ω. The core area is A = 0.00193 m2. The CT must
operate at maximum primary current of 10 kA. If the frequency is 60 Hz and the core is built from
silicon steel.
a) Determine whether or not the CT will saturate. (5 marks)
b) Determine the CT error. (5 marks)
