6.1.4.4 Summary and conclusions
SEMOD168160-5 v3
The IED can be used for differential protection of three-phase power transformers
with main CTs either star or delta connected. However the IED has been designed
with the assumption that all main CTS are star connected. The IED can be used in
applications where the main CTs are delta connected. For such applications the
following shall be kept in mind:
1. The ratio for delta connected CTs shall be set √(3)=1.732 times smaller than
the actual individual phase CT ratio.
2. The power transformer vector group shall typically be set as Yy0 because the
compensation for power transformer the actual phase shift is provided by the
external delta CT connection.
3. The zero sequence current is eliminated by the main CT delta connections.
Thus on sides where CTs are connected in delta the zero sequence current
elimination shall be set to Off in the IED.
The following table summarizes the most commonly used star-delta vector groups
around the world and provides information about the required type of main CT
delta connection on the star side of the protected transformer.
