WHAT IS THE USAGE OF Buckoltz relay IN POWER TRANSFORMER AND AND HOW ITS FUNCTIONS?..

Answer / wasif

in case of fault enormous amout of heat is generated in the
main tank which decompose the oil as a result of which
gases are produced. When the gases travel from main tank to
conservator tank they causes the float of buchholz relay to
be inverted which in result makes the tripping contacts and
thus causes the breaker to be tripped.

Answer / nagaraja bagi

Buchholz relay is used for Transformer Internal faults,bcoz
of over load or internal faults more heat will produce it
decomposes the oil and produces the gas and because of
transformer insulation gas will produce and it will try
move from main tank to conservator bcoz it is light in
weight then alarm float will operate and gives the alarm if
it exceeds then tripping float will operate and trip the
Breaker of Transformer.
