2) The pilot wires used may vary in length due to which the unbalance in
the secondary circuit parameter (resistance) is created that results in
improper scheme.

RESTRICTED EARTH FAULT PROTECTION
But during internal fault the NCT only carries the unbalance
fault current and operation of Restricted Earth Fault Relay takes place.
This scheme of REF protection is very sensitive for internal earth fault
of electrical power transformer.
The protection scheme is comparatively cheaper than differential
protection scheme.
The neutral current under load conditions is quite small. The neutral
current is essentially because of load unbalance.
EARTH FAULT
The basic working principle of thermal relay is that, when a
bimetallic strip is heated up by a heating coil carrying over
current of the system, it bends and makes normally open
contacts to close and close the Trip Circuit of C.B.
