For which of the following ratings of the transformer differential protection is recommended ?

Correct answer: B. equal to and above 5 MVA

  • A. above 30 kVA.
  • B. equal to and above 5 MVA
  • C. equal to and above 25 MVA
  • D. none of the above

Explanation

Transformer differential protection is normally applied to larger transformers because its cost and complexity are justified at higher ratings, commonly around 5 MVA and above. Thus the threshold given in option b is the standard textbook choice.
