This Excel spreadsheet presents the simulation of the UR T60/T35 transformer biased differential protection, and is built to provide

customers,
with a tool for excersizing different transformer setups, and test scenarios. The simulation can be used to verify the biased differential settings, the differentia
and restraint metering on the relay, and the correct operation of the element, under test conditions.

Some rules to follow, when working with the simulation program:


1) Enter "0" angle for Winding 1, and enter the angles of the other transformer windings With Respect To (WRT) Winding 1 in negative degrees. See the exa
2) Enter the settings of the Differential/Restraint characteristic without exceeding the ranges set on the relay.
3) Enter all settings and test currents only into the allocated cells! The magnitudes and angles of the test currents should be entered on the spreadsheet as
For example, if we have a 100MVA transformer, 230kV/69kV Y/D30 degrees, with CT(w1) 500:5, and CT(w2) 1000:5, and we want to
simulate balanced conditions(differential current = 0), the entered transformer setup, and the test currents for Winding 1 and Winding 2 will look as per the

Note the angles of the entered test currents for Winding 2 are shifted by 180 degrees. This shift com
inversed polarity connections of the winding CTs connected to the relay terminals. From the example,

phA(W2) = -30 -180 = -210 degrees, phB(W2) = - 150-180 = -330, and for ph C(W2) = - 270-180
