    Line to line fault analysis and equations. Doubt

    Hello I'm a little confused by your writing. If you have setup the system to have a fault between b-c, then your parameters are: I[a] = 0 I[b] = - I[c] V[b] - V[c] = I[b]Z[f] If you take a fault between a-b, then your system parameters change: I[a] = - I[b] I[c] = 0 V[a] - V[b] = I[a]Z[f]...

    Books about SCADA systems

    Thank you all for the inputs. They've been a great help [smile] Short circuits, protection, arc flash assessment. That's what I know best :D

    Books about SCADA systems

    Hello I've learnt about PLC programming and want to learn about SCADA systems. I know a google search can yield a lot of results, however since most of my google results either lean towards: "Learn by making your own" or "buy our SCADA solutions" I haven't really learnt anything from that. My...

    Sequence Network for Wye Delta Transformer

    Hello I did a project on this back in 2017, although I fear I only passed this because our teacher and examinator forgot we were doing work on Ynd transformers over Dyn. The best I can give you is one reference, I would link you one that deals with this specifically, the problem is it's in...

    European working in Canada

    Hello Desrod2 I only barely passed programming although this is mostly due to my illness becoming even worse during that time. I have considered learning PLC programming although I'm very confused with how to go about it. I'm also looking at other countries than just Canada (Ireland, Scotland...

    Symmetrical Components and sequence circuits

    Electrical Transmission and Distribution reference book has all the two-circuit transformer, two-circuit autotransformer, three-circuit transformer and three-circuit autotransformer; positive and zero sequence equivalent circuit. There's also derivation of some of them, but not all. Be warned...

    Delta power ditribution systems outside of North America

    In Denmark; Residential and some industrial installations use TT. TN is found industrial applications, it was more or less exclusively used in the place I was an intern at. IT is found in hospitals and ships, and other places where a 1st fault will not result in a fault clearing, until...

    European working in Canada

    Hi moltenmetal Thank you very much for the response, I've broadened my horizon to look at other countries as well.

    European working in Canada

    Hey all I apologize ahead of time if this is the wrong place to post this, I wasn't sure. Basically my situation is this: I live in Denmark and the industry is "screaming" for engineers, which is true if you have +5 years worth of experience, which I don't (got my degree in January 2019). I...

    protection textbook recommendation

    Two other good references, although they're based solely on differential protection and distance protection are the Gerhard Ziegler books: - Numerical Differential Protection - Numerical Distance Protection The differential book is as the title states, solely focused on differential protection...

    L-L-G VS L-G Fault Level

    What type of installation is it (can we get a circuit diagram)? If your installation is near the transformer on the secondary side then L-G should be the same as L-L-G, this is of course under the pretence that all the impedances are equal. However! Since both L-G and L-L-G are dependent on...

    A question about differential and distance protection of transmission lines

    Thank you all for your inputs, they've been very helpful.

    A question about differential and distance protection of transmission lines

    I'm going to a job interview next week and I have 3 questions. I know that differential protection of transmission lines (Mostly done as aerial lines in my country and still being expanded on) has (probably) been a common practice for the past few years due to it's fast sensing and reliability...

    CT saturation during unbalanced faults

    Hello I have a question regarding current transformer saturation during fault conditions as listed in the subject title. Some background: We have a 3-phase induction motor drawing 500A during full load. I've chosen some current transformers: 500:5, 5P5, 30VA. (Transformers will not saturate...

    Thank you all for your inputs, they've been very helpful.

    Phase-Phase-Earth Fault Symmetrical Components

    As magoo2 already pointed out. If you want help on the proofs you can try looking at the book symmetrical components (1933 by Westinghouse engineers C.F. Wagner and R.D. Evans), you can find it on scribd.

    Connection of current transformers in star/delta question

    Hello I've recently been reading about current transformers and their application in differential protection. From what I can understand if you're protecting a star connection, you have to connect the current transformers in delta and vice versa. What I don't understand is why this is the...

    Mid span standing voltage - solid bonded cables

    The best I could find was a standard IEEE-575. (Although only valid for 5kV to 500kV cables). Researchgate has an article that wrote down some of the equations in the standard. Link That's about all I can help you with. If you need something more specific, let me know, although I'm probably...

    Single phase to ground fault calculation, confusion!

    I'm currently writing a thesis on the application of symmetrical components for line and motor protection. The only time I've ever seen If=E/ZE, was as an equation in a instructional manual for an installation tester. In that one ZE is the measured loop through a conductor and the PE...
