The transformer circuit breaker is equipped with 1000/5 A CTS and the feeder circuit breakers with 400/5 A CTS and all sets of CTs feed induction type over current relays. The relays on the feeder circuits breakers have a 125% plug setting, and 0.3 time setting. If 3 ph fault current of 5000 A flows from the transformer to one of the feeders, find the operating time of the feeder relay, the minimum plug setting of the transformer relay and its time setting assuming a discrimination time margin of 0.5 sec.

The metal regions are shaded in grey and are made of copper. The solid central wire has radius a = 5mm, the outer tube inner radius b = 20mm and thickness t = 5mm. The dielectric spacer is Teflon, of relative permittivity &r = 2.1 and breakdown strength 350kV/cm. A potential difference of 1kV is applied across the conductors, with centre conductor positive and outer conductor earthed. Before undertaking any COMSOL simulations we'll first perform some theoretical analysis of Cable A based on the EN2076 lectures, to make sense of the simulations. Calculate the radial electric field of cable A at radial positions r b. Also calculate the maximum operating voltage of cable A, assuming a safety margin of ×2, and indicate where on the cable's cross section dielectric breakdown is most likely to occur.arrow_forward
