The Analysis of Power Transformer from Differential Protection Using Back Propagation Neural Algorithm

Abstract

This paper presents A novel method used for Differential Protection in power transformer. In a power system, transformers and other electrical equipment need to be protected not only from short circuit, but also from abnormal operating conditions, such as over loading, and differential fault protection. The power transformer protective relay should block the tripping during magnetizing inrush and rapidly initiate the tripping during internal faults. Many methods have been used to discriminate magnetizing inrush from internal faults in power transformers. Most of them follow a deterministic approach, This article proposes for power transformer differential protection & the proposed algorithm are the Feed forward Back propagation Algorithm (FFBPN) as a classifier and address the challenging task of detecting magnetizing inrush from internal fault. The algorithm is evaluated using simulation performed with MATLAB. The results confirm that the FFBPN is faster, stable and more reliable recognition of transformer inrush and internal fault condition.
