Star-star power transformer is protected by current transformer having

(A) Star/star connections

(B) Delta/delta connections

(C) Star/delta connections

(D) Delta/star connections


Answer: (B) Delta/delta connections


Explanation:



Merz-price differential protection scheme:
Merz-price differential protection is nothing but a percentage differential protection.
It works under the principle of the circulating current scheme.
Merz-price differential protection is used to protect the transformer from internal short circuits, Internal ground faults, and inter-turn short circuits.

The CTs connection in the Merz-price protection:
CTs are connected to every phase of the system.

In order to nullify the phase shift of the Power transformer (PT), The Current transformers (CT) connected in a reverse configuration.

The star-star power transformer is protected by the current transformer having delta/delta connections.
