Autotransformers in EHV Power Systems: Theory, Maths & Practice
Autotransformers are among the most misunderstood yet critically important assets in modern power systems. While they appear deceptively simple at low voltages, at EHV levels (380–500 kV) they become system-defining components that directly influence fault levels, insulation coordination, grounding, and grid stability. This article provides a complete, utility-grade explanation of autotransformers, covering theory, mathematics, IEC…
Feeder Protection Signaling
High-voltage power systems like 380kV transmission lines are the backbone of modern grids. They carry electricity over long distances, and any fault (like a short circuit or flashover) the system must detect it instantly and isolate it to protect equipment and keep the grid stable. That’s where feeder protection signaling comes in. In this post,…
