1.Objective:
The objective of this test is confirm that the differential relay(87T) and Restricted earth fault (BCPU &
87T) relay doesn't operate at normal conditions even though load currents are high, where It should
operate when a fault occurs in its zone.
2.Source:
Suitable 3 phase generator (Separate) – 415volt – 50 Hz or Suitable Voltage.
3.3 Phase shorting is to be done in Medium Voltage side to create load.
3. Precautions:
1.Good earth of: The Transformer, The shield of the cables, Relays & Star Point of CT’s.
2.The correct size of connected testing cables.
3.Determine working zones and places and preventing any person to be in these zones.
4.Suitable MCB for 3-phase supply.
5.CT terminal blocks must be checked and tightness well.
6.Check the Phase Sequence of the 3-Phase Supply.
7.Test equipments and tools:
8.Calibrated multi-meter.
9.Calibrated tester for measure current.
4. Calculation:
