Abstract

A method and system of transformer protection in which parallel admittance currents indicative of the apparent excitation state of a transformer to be protected are evaluated from the transformer terminal voltages and currents sampled at a proper interval, and discrimination between an internal defect and excitation inrush is made in response to a magnitude of the parallel admittance current, and a breaker opening command is issued in response to a judgement of internal defect. The method and system enables high-accuracy and high-sensitivity fault detection through a simple computation.
