4.11.13 Voltage Regulating Relay

(i) Introduction: Voltage Regulating Relay is used for regulating the secondary voltage of power
 POWER TRANSFORMER - STANDARDISATION MANUAL 131

transformers with on-load tap changers. The required dead band settings are set by setting the
nominal value, and lower and upper levels independently. The time delay setting on the front
panel eliminates the relay operations for momentary fluctuations of the regulated voltage thus
reducing the number of operations of the tap changer. “ When the regulated voltage falls below
the specified under voltage limit, the control relays are automatically blocked, i.e., there is no
voltage correction, and a pair of contacts is made available for alarm.

(ii) General Description: Voltage regulating relay should be designed for maximum operational
simplicity for regulating the secondary voltage of power transformer with on load tap changers.
The dead band (band width) can be set by setting the nominal value adjustment (NVA) to the
required value “110 V + 10 per cent”.

The desired time delay can be set on the front panel and the control action will take place only if the
voltage continues to remain outside the dead band after the time delay has elapsed. For voltage
corrections requiring more than one tap change, time delay is initiated again before further tap
change. The relay is reset automatically after the voltage is brought within the selected dead band.
For repeated short duration voltage fluctuations on the same side of the dead band, the time delay
is effectively reduced to provide a voltage time integral response of the regulator. Operation of the
Raise Control relay is automatically inhibited when the voltage falls below the specified under-
voltage limit. One pair of normally open relay contacts are provided to effect the tap changer,
Raise and Lower operation and to trigger an alarm in case of under voltage conditions.

(iii) Specifications
Auxiliary Supply : -15% / + 10% 50 Hz
PT Supply (regulated Voltage) : 110 V ± 10 per cent 50 Hz
Sensitivity (Dead Band) : Nominal value adjustable (NVA)
and Nominal Value Range between + 0.75 to + 2.5 per cent
Time Delay Setting: Fixed, i.e., (Voltage independent) time delay continuously adjustable from 10
to 110 secs.
Time Delay Resetting: Instantaneous resetting with voltage deviation occurring in opposite
direction.
Under Voltage Blocking: Internal blocking at 80 per cent of regulated value. Restoration at 85 per
cent of regulated value.
Control Relays: One pair of normally open potential free contacts of suitable rating.
Control Operation: Single pulsed operation of sufficient duration to initiate tap changer.
Operating Temperature : – 5° to + 50°C
Option: Line drop compensator with resistive and reactive compensation of either polarity up to
20 per cent adjustable in steps or continuously and suitable for operation with 1 Amp. current
transformer. If required suitable interposing current transformer to be used to get 1 Amp.
Secondary current.
1 pair of NC (UV) contacts provided.

4.11.14 Line Drop Compensator (LDC) : Description

i. The Line Drop Compensator is an optional unit designed to match with the Automatic Voltage
Regulator Relay. The unit is housed in the same enclosure or separately mounted.
The voltages at the generating end and at the receiving end are not the same due to the drop across
the line. The LDC is used to compensate for this line drop, and the amount of compensation required
is calculated as a per cent of the nominal voltage knowing the length of the line, its resistance/unit
length, its reactance/unit length and the rated current, and set on the front panel.
The line current is stepped down to 1 Amp. & fed to the LDC. The resistive and reactive drops are
simulated by having 90° phase shifted voltage and their polarity selected by polarity switches. The net
compensation is then fed to the stepped down PT voltage.
132 POWER TRANSFORMER - STANDARDISATION MANUAL

ii. Specifications
Resistive Compensation: 0-20 per cent of the regulating value continuously adjustable.
Reactive Compensation: 0-20 per cent of the regulating value continuously adjustable.
Input Rated Current: 1 Amp. 50 Hz.
Power Consumption: As required (CT burden will depend on power consumption).
Accuracy : 10 per cent.
Max. Overcurrent : 50 per cent of rated current (1.5 Amp.)
Polarity Selection : Both positive and negative compensation.

iii. Operating and Connection Requirements

Connection to the LDC unit are made through the rear panel terminals. The line current is stepped
down to 1 Amp. 50 Hz and fed to the LDC. The net compensation is fed to the AVR circuit internal
or external connections.

The required amount of percent R and per cent X compensation can be set on the front panel of
the LDC. The polarity selector switches provide both positive and negative compensation. The per
cent R and per cent X settings can be calculated from the following formulae:

√ 3*IL*RL

Per cent R = x 100 per cent

Per cent X = x 100 per cent

Where, IL = the primary rated current of the line.

VL = the voltage between lines of the power transformer.

XL = the line reactance in ohms/phase.

RL = the line resistance in ohms/phase.

Note : When LDC unit is not to be used, keep per cent R and per cent X settings to Zero, i.e., on
minimum position.

4.11.15 Local Electrical Operation

This is possible only in the independent position. Set the switch ‘S32’ to Local position in D.M.
Box. When switch ‘S32’ is kept on Local Mode, the control supply is made available to the Raise/
Lower switch in D.M. Using the Raise/Lower switch, Local Electrical Operation can be carried
out.

4.11.16 Remote Electrical Operation

Remote Electrical Operation is carried out as follows :

Select one Transformer as “Master’ and others as its ‘Followers’. Then control supply will be
tapped from D.M. Box to RTCC panel. Through the S/W S5 in RTCC1, which is set at ‘Master’
mode the Control supply is passed on to S/W S40 in D.M.1 which is an Odd/Even type of S/W.
Its every 2nd position is linked e.g. 1, 3. 5. 7. 9. 11. 13. 15, 17 etc. This is to reduce number of
interconnecting wires between RTCC panels. Suppose, Transformer 1, which is set as a “Master’,
is at Tap 1, then through its odd/Even S/W in D.M.1, the Control Supply now goes to RTCC2 and
from there it goes to Odd/Even S/W S40 of D.M.2. If the D.M.2 is also at Tap 1, then the control
supply will be returned to RTCC2 set at “Follower’ mode and energizes Contactor K11 in RTCC2.
Normally Open Contact of this K11 is wired up in RTCC1 and once it becomes closed, supply is
available at Auto/Manual S/W S9, in RTCC1.

If the S/W S9 is set at Manual mode, then thro’ Push Button S1 or S2 Raise/ Lower operation is
carried out. S1 will energize Contactor K4 for Raise tap and S2 will energize K5 for Lower contactor.
Once the Raise or Lower Contactor in Master RTCC is picked up, it will extend the command to
Follower RTCC to Raise or Lower Contactor and hence tap will be changed in both Transformers
 POWER TRANSFORMER - STANDARDISATION MANUAL 133

simultaneously. If the Tap change operation is not completed within prescribed time duration,
then the Timer is energized in D.M. Box which indicates Tap Change incomplete indication and
D.M. MCB is tripped. Contactor K6 in RTCC will act as a Blocking relay which will block the Tap
Change operation in case both RTCC’ s are not at same Tap position. In that case the timer K29 is
picked up and will indicate Tap change Out of step indication.

Remote Auto Operation:

Remote Auto Operation is carried out as follows:

Set Auto/Manual S/W S9 on Auto Mode. The Raise/Lower Tap position decision is taken care by
Automatic Voltage Regulator. As per its instruction either K4 or K5 is energized and then it gives
command to Follower RTCC accordingly.

4.12 Cooler Control Scheme

Cooler control systems follow different practices and vary depending upon customer specs, manufacturers
standard practices, however, standard control schematic will allow end customer to operate cooler control
with more ease and similar representation of schemes and ease of maintenance. For cooler control sche-
matics, standardisation of schemes will lead only to way of representation and mode of control like Auto/
Manual or Local/Remote. Typical Cooler Control Circuit is attached as Fig. 3.3.

The standard methods for drawing are as follows:

4.12.1 Index

connection and originating point after it for easy tracing in the event of fault finding.
e.g.

Fig. 3.2

Where control schematic drawings are prepared in A3 or A4 size sheets, signal linking has to be
done in following fashion:

Signal designation to start with letter “L” followed by signal number followed by the destination
sheet and column in which destination is located. e. g.. --|L1/5.2. In this example, signal L1 is
terminated on 5th sheet and in 2nd column.
