why are the likely reasons for bochholz & pressure relays
oprate due to a internal fault but not differential relay ?
Answer Posted / yusuf
Buchholz and Pressure relays such as Over Surge Relays are
also known as Gas operated relays... Consider an internal
fault such as inturturn fault in the transformer winding,
then the oil temperature raises which in turn produces Gas
inside the Oil Tank.. This Gas passes through the pipe
connected between Oil Tank and Conservator Tank and relay is
placed in the pipe work... so the Gas passes through the
relay and gives an alarm first and then trips the
transformer when the fault is severe.... Differential
protection is based on the principle of Differential current
which compares the current at the two sides ( LV & HV )of
the Trafo... And that's the reason the Differential
protection does not operate for incipient (Slow developing)
Faults

Dear sir, I completed DECE In the year 1995.Now i am working in a private company from last 10 years as an Electrical supervisor.The company having a 1000 KVA transformer.Now i try to apply "C" Licence. I am eligible or not.If not eligible,pls give solution.
does the Trivector Meter of three phase automatically takes care of the low power factor and gives the reading accordigly or it does not take care of the Power factor while giving the readings please explain
