CURRENT TRANSFORMER
 When current in a circuit is too high
to directly apply to measuring
instruments, a current transformer
is used.
 A current transformer has a primary
winding, a magnetic core, and a
secondary winding.
 The alternating current flowing in
the primary produces a magnetic
field in the core, which then induces
current flow in the secondary
winding circuit
ISOLATOR

• It is essentially off load

device.
• Isolators are manually
as well as automatically
operated.
• These are fitted on both
sides of transformer,
circuit breaker or any
equipment.
 POWER TRANSFORMER
 It contains primary
winding , transformer
coil(inductively coupled
coil)& secondary
winding
 There are three
autotransformer two of
them of 315 mva & one
240 mva.
 RELAY


A relay is an electrically operated
switch . Many relays use an
electromagnet to operate a
switching mechanism, but other
operating principles are also used.
BATTERY
 At 400 kv substation two sets of
220v & one set of 48 v .
 The battery charging equipments
comprises of a float charger and
a boost charger.
 Stabilization  output voltage is
provided in the float charger to
float the battery at the correct
level.
 The battery can be boost
charging after a prolonged mains
failure by the boost charger.
 WAVE TRAP
It connected is series with power line.
It is basically an inductor of rating in milli
henry.
It blocks the high frequency carrier waves
(24 kHz to 500 kHz) and let power waves (50
Hz - 60 Hz) to pass through.
 SURGE ARRESTORS

• The protection against transient

voltage surges is provided by surge
arrestors
• They are usually connected between
phase and ground. Surge arrestor
discharges current impulse surge to
earth and dissipates energy in the
form of heat.
 EARTH WIRE

• Earth wire in EHV transmission lines

is used to provide safeguard against
lightening other transient surges and
efficient operation of protection
system under fault condition.
