5.7.3.3 Instantaneous differential
SETTINGS GROUPED ELEMENTS SETTING GROUP 1(6) TRANSFORMER INSTANTANEOUS DIFFERENTIAL
The instantaneous differential element acts as an instantaneous overcurrent element responding to the measured
differential current magnitude (filtered fundamental frequency component) and applying a user-selectable pickup
threshold. Set the pickup threshold greater than the maximum spurious differential current that can be encountered under
non-internal fault conditions (typically magnetizing inrush current or an external fault with extremely severe CT saturation).

5.7.3.4 Hottest-spot temperature
SETTINGS GROUPED ELEMENTS SETTING GROUP 1(6) TRANSFORMER HOTTEST-SPOT TEMPERATURE
The Hottest-Spot Temperature element provides a mechanism to detect abnormal winding hottest-spot temperatures
inside the transformer. It can be set to alarm or trip in cases where the computed hottest-spot temperature is above the
pickup threshold for a user-specified time (considered as transformer overheating).
