What are the possible causes of REF operation on a power
transformer

Answer Posted / k.prakashchandra

All cts(Phases and neutral) are connected in parallel.If
there are unbalanced currents in phases, the resultant
current in REFR is zero as the difference is also measured
by NCT .If there is an earth fault inside the transformer
or between cts and bushings ,the fault current is sensed by
NCT only. Hence current balnce is lost in REFR resulting in
trip command by the relay

following are the questions asked in interviews: 1) Considering the short circuit fault, which switchgear is preferable, SFU OR MCCB? Which operates faster? whicg one is popular in Indian Market and why? 2)Define SCPD. What is type2 coodination? 3)Why the contactor rating is higher for the fuseless selection than for fuse selection? whether the ratinf of SFU or MCCB remains the same in both the cases? 4)If the HP rating is known then can you calculate the ratings of L.V Switchgear(SFU/MCCB, contactor, OLR) without using the selection chart?
