Summated Overcurrent Protection

08/04/2010 10:18 AM

Hello friends,

Can somebody explain me the principle and working of summated overcurrent protection used as an cheap alternative for bus-zone differential protection. It's like if to a 2-section bus bar 2 transformers are feeding with bus coupler always closed, the summation of one transformer L.T end C.T and c.t on bus bar second section to which other trafo is feeding (although bus coupler is closed, so both transformer feed both section, sharing is there) is taken for protection. Please explain, I can't find anything over internet.

Thanks,

Sohan

See the following chapter on bus protection, from GE's "The Art and Science of Protective Relaying" - do a Google search, and you can download the whole book free.

http://www.gedigitalenergy.com/multilin/notes/artsci/art12.pdf

It gives info on partial differential relay scheme, which is what you are describing.
