Automatic load sharing of distribution transformer for overload protection

Abstract

Abstract Objective Load sharing provides sufficient protection to distribution transformer under overloaded conditions. Due to overload on transformer, the efficiency drops and windings get overheated and may burn. By sharing a load current on transformer for each phase the transformer was protected. Therefore, the objective of this study was to protect transformers from overloaded conditions by sharing the load. Result The system automatically connects and disconnects switch to share the transformer loads. The controller was managed the load according to rules.
