Participation reward: 2 Wealth. Reward for correct answer: 9 Wealth. Question: What are the common protection devices used in power transformers?
(1) Gas protection. It is used to indicate various faults within the transformer tank as well as a drop in the oil level. (2) Differential protection. Used to indicate faults in the transformer windings, bushings, and leads. (3) Inter-phase overcurrent protection. Depending on the operating conditions, composite voltage blocking and direction blocking can be introduced, and according to the setting requirements, it is possible to detect inter-phase short-circuit faults inside and outside the transformer. (4) Impedance protection. When the inter-phase overcurrent protection does not meet the sensitivity requirements, impedance protection can be used. (5) Zero-sequence current protection and zero-sequence current direction protection. Depending on the setting direction, it can reflect internal and external ground short-circuit faults of the transformer. (6) Overload protection. Reflects the overloaded condition of the transformer; triggers a signal or trip. (7) Over-excitation protection. It reflects the over-excitation condition caused by overvoltage or reduced frequency, and acts on the signal or to trigger a trip. (8) Other protections. Protection that reflects special conditions such as pressure release and temperature rise.

The primary protections installed in power transformers include: 1. Gas protection (to detect faults inside the transformer itself); 2. Differential protection (to detect faults within the current transformers on each side of the transformer). The secondary protections installed in power transformers include: 1. Composite voltage-locked overcurrent protection; 2. Negative sequence current protection; 3. Resistance-based protection; 4. Zero sequence overcurrent protection; 5. Zero sequence overvoltage protection; 6. Overload protection; 7. Overtemperature and overpressure protection; 8. Cooling system protection; 9. Other specialized protections
①Gas protection (reflecting internal faults in the transformer itself); ②Differential protection (detects faults within the current transformers on each side of the transformer).
