where i2p and i2s are the secondary currents of the CTs
connected to the primary and secondary side of a three-phase
protected transformer.
B. Fault Discrimination Criterion
The input signals corresponding to differential currents, are
preprocessed by a DWT. After the differential current signal
passes through the filter bank, the proposed algorithm
analyzes the variation of the coefficients in the first detail. The
decision for discriminating between internal faults and inrush
currents is made based on a ratio (Irat) quantified in the certain
window of analysis. The Irat index is defined as the relation
between the maximum coefficient from the first detail of the
DWT decomposition (CDWT, max) and the spectral energy of the
other frequency components present in the same detail (E[n]).
The spectral energy is defined in [3]. Then, the index Irat is
given by:

Subroutine 1: firstly the on-line monitoring of three-phase
differential current is made on stage (a). Stage (b) calculates
the three-phase activation currents through equation (3); the
setting of the restraining currents is made using the factor k at
stage (b). Stage (c) compares the activation currents with the
three-phase differential currents values and stage (d) is
activated if, and only if, any one of three-phase differential
current is higher than the activation current setting in (b). If
these conditions are not met, a new sampling instant is
considered, returning to stage (a).
Subroutine 2: fulfilled condition (c), stage (d) implements
the DWT through the filter bank. Stage (e) carries out the
calculation of Irat index with equation (4). This index is
calculated in three consecutive windows to avoid mistakes in
the decision logic. The maximum number of windows
analyzed is given by a factor named Nw, where stage (f)
verifies this condition. The windows analysis moves 1/4 cycle
for each index calculated. Stage (g) compares the values of
Irat, calculated in stage (e) with the adaptive threshold value
Th. This stage outputs the relay diagnosis.
