14a Discuss the operation of summation transformer with neat
sketch.
Summation Current Transformer
the line is compared. The pilot wires are used to connect the
relays. Under normal working condition, the
two currents at both ends are equal and pilot wires do not carry
any current, keeping relays inoperative.
Under an internal fault condition, the two currents at both the
ends are no longer same, this causes
circulating current flow through pilot wires and makes the relay
to trip
Under normal condition, current entering the line at one end is
equal to current leaving from the other
end. Therefore, equal and opposite voltages are induced in the
secondaries of C.T.s. at the two ends
resulting in no current flow, through the relay. Under fault
condition, two currents at the two ends are
different. Thus the secondary voltages of both the end C.T.s
differ from each other. This circulates a
circulating current through the pilot wires and the relays. Thus
the relays trip the circuit breakers to isolate
the faulty section.
The advantages of this method are as follows
It can be used for parallel as well as ring main system.
It provides instantaneous protection to ground faults.
The limitations of this method are as follows
The C.T.s used must match accurately.
The pilot wires must be healthy without discontinuity.
Economically not suitable as the cost is high due to long pilot
wires. Due to long pilot wires,
capacitive effects adversely bias the operation of the relays.
The large voltage drop in the pilot wires requiring better
insulation.
