Abstract:An inter-urn short-ircuit fault of 220 kV transformer is analyzed, and the fault characteristics and diagnosis process of typical inter-urn short-ircuit of transformer are introduced in detail from protection action, diagnostic test and disassembly inspection. The longitudinal differential protection and incremental differential protection point out that winding in phase A has inter-urn or high resistance grounding fault. The low-oltage no-oad and winding deformation tests show that phase A has inter-urn short-ircuit fault or magnetic circuit fault, and the transformation ratio test indicates that the high-oltage winding has inter-urn short-ircuit. During the disassembly inspection, it is found that high-oltage winding in phase A has inter-urn short-ircuit fault, which verifies the diagnosis and analysis conclusion.
