Static differential relay indication, Transformer Bucholz

Answer Posted / k.prakashchandra
OLTC has contact switches on rotating spindle and diverter
switch. Bucholtz relay acts as the oil is burnt in the
chamber due to arcing caused by loose contact .The spring
tension of the switches are to be checked for correct
tightness.If the contact is not correct ,the differential
relay may also act due to imbalance of currents.Do not
operate OLTC till the fault is set right.And the oil may
have to reconditioned.
