Consider all generating plant and transformers in service except T3 and T4 and assume all breakers at mesh station "E" be open. to Find the per unit phase currents (neglecting load) see situated on lines Dl and D2 close to busbars "A" and" and also the per unit phase voltages at these points. voltage at "Cc" to be 1 piu. by relays respectively Assume pre-fault Use the positive and negative sequence networks derived in Question 4c) of the tutorial "Fauit Cateuletion - Balanced Faults and Revision trenste 29. forte total system to the fault Zi = Z2 = j0.194 p.u. For the fault calculation, use MVAbase = 10 MVA. Converting Zp-r to 10 MVA base, pet = 01x) 0.2 pu. Impedance values for the equivalent "star" network for the transformer can now be determined Ze = 0.5(2p-s + Ze-r - 25-7) = 0,5(0.1 + 0.2 - 0.05) = 0.125 pw Zs = 0.5(Ze-s + Zs-r - Ze-1) = 0,5(0.1 + 0.05 - 0.2) = peu tr = 0,5(2e-r + Zs-1 - Ze-s = 0,5(0.2 + 0.05 - 0.1) = 0. The sequence network connection diagram for the earth fault at "F" is shown below. 0-2 o-125 coos I, I pow Ao °, Si0F The network is reduced as follows :- Total positive sequence impedance, Ty = 0.2 4 0.125 - 0.025 = 0.3 pu.
