TAP CHANGER FAILURE
The Tap Changer Failure element monitors the resistance seen by the tap changer monitoring circuit. The element pro-
duces an output signal when the tap changer position exceeds the maximum number of taps (set by the
NUMBER OF TAP
POSITIONS
setpoint) by 2. This signal can be used as an alarm or as a signal to change the setpoint group. A change in the
setpoint group would be programmed through the FlexLogic™. This approach would be useful if very sensitive settings had
been used in the normal in-service Setpoint group for the Harmonic Restrained Differential element, assuming that the tap
changer position was used to compensate the input current magnitude.
