Residual Voltages
For applications e.g. Dire. E/F relays, residual Voltages are required, and are usually provided by windings connected in broken delta as shown in Fig. 1 below.
Contd.
Residual Voltages
Under normal conditions, the three phase to Earth Voltages are of equal magnitude & 120 degree apart and residual voltage (of system freq.) is Zero. But under E/F conditions, the voltage to earth of one phase collapses, either totally or partially depending on the location of fault, and the voltage applied to the other ph. to earth windings is increased and changed in phase (shown by solid lines), by amounts dependent on the method of earthing the system Neutral, and the Residual voltage VR appears vectorialy as shown in fig.1(b). Contd.
Residual Voltages
It should be noted that the 3rd harmonic voltages add up in a broken-delta connected winding and if present in the applied voltage will appear at the terminals of broken delta winding.
Contd.
Residual Voltages
Because a residual voltage Vresi is the result of an out of balance of the fluxes linking the residual voltage windings, a low reluctance path for this residual flux must be provided in the 3 phase PT (Transformer), the usual method being to use a five limbed core. (There are no windings provided on 4th & 5th limbs of the core).
Contd.
Residual Voltages
Residual Voltages can be obtained from auxiliary V.Ts which will be star/broken delta connected, but the main V.T. must be capable of reproducing an out of balance in the three phase to earth voltages, I.e. it must have a path for residual flux, or be comprised of three single-phase units, while it is, of course, essential for the primary and secondary star points to be available.

6) Check silicagel and replace if necessary 7) Check arcing horns for condition & distance.
Annual Maint.1) Test dielectric strength 2) Test oil for deposits, colour & acidity. 3) Megger the windings between primary & secondary. Note:- In case of Hermitically sealed PTs, dont take out oil samples & dont open the TRF, without direction from firm.
