1.8 Protective Relays Applied To Autotransformers

Autotransformers perform the same function as two-winding transformers by allowing power transfer between two transmission networks, but do not electrically isolate the networks from each other like two-winding transformers do. Autotransformers are less expensive than multi-winding transformers at transmission voltages, so they are used more frequently in power systems. The document shows a single line diagram of an autotransformer protected by two numerical multi-function relays.

8 Protective relays applied to autotransformers

Two-winding transformers allow power transfer between two transmission networks or a


transmission network and a sub-transmission network while the two networks remain electrically
isolated from each other. Autotransformers perform the same function except that they do not
electrically isolate the two networks from each other. Autotransformers are less expensive than
multi-winding transformers at transmission network voltages and are, therefore, used more
frequently in power systems.
