1. (i) A 20MVA transformer which is used to operate at 30% overload feeds an 11 KV bus-
bar through a circuit breaker. The transformer is equipped with a 1000/5 current
transformer and a feeder circuit breaker with 400/5 current transformer and both the
transformers fed IDMTL Relay having the following characteristics.
PLUG SETTING MULTIPLIER 2 3 5 10 15 20
The relay on the feeder circuit breaker has 125% plug setting and a 0.3 time multiplier
setting. If a fault current of 5000A flows from the transformer to feeder, determine:
a) Operating time of feeder relay
b) Suggest suitable plug setting and time multiplier setting of the transformer relay to
ensure adequate discrimination of 0.5 sec between the transformer relay and feeder
relay. [15]
(ii) An inverse time relay is one in which the operating time is approximately inversely
proportional to the magnitude of the actuating quantity. Illustrate using time current
characteristics. [5]
7. What type of protective device are used for protection of an alternator against
overheating of its
i) Stator ii) Rotor? Discuss. [20]
8. Discuss with necessary circuit diagram a typical directional over current relay. Draw
with necessary circuit diagrams the a) 30 0 connection b) 90 0 connection as
applied to direction relay.
