Transformer Vector Groups
Application Questions and Problems topic
Posted by Tony Foster on 7 October, 2007 - 3:25 pm
We have an installation in Tunisia where a CHP plant is connected to a site bus via a 7MVA YNd11 transformer. In the protection relay settings the vector group Yd11 has been chosen but we appear to be having differntial trips. Is there a difference in phase shift between a Yd11 and a YNd11?

Anybody got any ideas. Email me on tfoster@centrax.eu.com

Responding to T. Foster's query... please answer the following:

1) Does the transformer trip upon energization?

2) Does the transformer trip at no-load or at a specific load?

3) Is the transformer provided with a tertiary winding?
