Figure 169: Signal flow for a single transformer with voltage control
On the HV side, the three-phase current is normally required in order to feed the three-
phase over current protection that blocks the load tap changer in case of over-current
above harmful levels.
The voltage measurement on the LV-side can be made single phase-ground. However,
it shall be remembered that this can only be used in solidly grounded systems, as the
measured phase-ground voltage can increase with as much as a factor √3 in case of
ground faults in a non-solidly grounded system.
The analog input signals are normally common with other functions in the IED for
example, protection functions.
The LV-busbar voltage is designated V
