When alarm is activated in buccholz relay in transformer
Answer / spl
Depending on the model, the relay has multiple methods to detect a failing transformer. On a slow accumulation of gas, due perhaps to slight overload, gas produced by decomposition of insulating oil accumulates in the top of the relay and forces the oil level down. A float switch in the relay is used to initiate an alarm signal. Depending on design, a second float may also serve to detect slow oil leaks.
If an arc forms, gas accumulation is rapid, and oil flows rapidly into the conservator. This flow of oil operates a switch attached to a vane located in the path of the moving oil. This switch normally will operate a circuit breaker to isolate the apparatus before the fault causes additional damage. Buchholz relays have a test port to allow the accumulated gas to be withdrawn for testing. Flammable gas found in the relay indicates some internal fault such as overheating or arcing, whereas air found in the relay may only indicate low oil level or a leak.

What will be the impact on motor performance if a LT motor is rewound with changed motor winding data as given below:- Original winding data: total 04 wires = 02 wires of 17 SWG + 02 wires of 16.5 SWG. Changed Winding data: total 03 wires of 15.5 SWG wire size Motor rating: 160KW, 740RPM, 415V, ID FAN application. Normal Running Current = 95% of FL Current.
