Description : What are the protections used in Class III & Class IV 415 V LV side?  

Last Answer : Class III 415 V LV side 1. 51 (inverse over current) 2. 50 (instantaneous over current) 3. 27 (under voltage) 4. 51N (earth fault) 5. 64 (REF)  Class IV 415 V LV side 1. 51 RYB (inverse over current) 2. 51N (earth fault) 

Description : Why REF is provided in the LV side of SUT and UT? 

Last Answer : The LV sides of the two transformers are earthed through the resistance. This will limit the flow of current in case of LV earth fault. Hence the differential protection may not act for a LV earth fault. Hence ref protection is provided.
