    The common fault of main equipment protection at home and aboard is pointed out and analyzed, and effective solving method is put forward at the same time. The protection engineers should understand the possible fault type, fault number, fault position and short-circuited coil number occurring in the winding of generator and transformer. The design of main protection configuration scheme for the large-sized generator and transformer must be based on the simulation of stator winding internal faults and the check of protection sensitivity. The final main protection scheme is optimized according to the design principle of advantage complementation and comprehensive utilization. Quantitative and scientific design achievement can be acquired by using above design method and it is beneficial to the safe operation of the large sized generator and transformer. The zero-sequence differential protection ought to be added at the star winding of extra-high voltage transformer. The impedance protection isn't suitable to be used as short-range backup protection for the large-sized generator and transformer.

    Electrical and magnetic domain parameters for online condition monitoring of converter transformers used in marine power system is explored, where the traditional DGA and PD techniques are not much applicable. Current signal and leakage flux from transformer core and winding are studied, with an emulated inter-turn fault in a 10 kVA lab-scale converter transformer. It is expected that the presence of valve winding in converter transformer will pose a challenge, for condition monitoring as it has inherent harmonics. There is a need for an online monitoring technique which is simple, cost effective and rugged to diagnose the fault and raise an alarm on-board ship, as it may lack the right maintenance technician or a replacement transformer during the voyage. Method of emulating the inter-turn fault in transformer, experimental studies and the frequency domain results from electrical and magnetic sensors for condition monitoring are discussed.

    The construction of transformers for high voltage direct current (HVDC) converter application poses new challenges to the manufacturer in terms of tight control of impedance, combined ac and dc dielectric stresses in the insulation, and non-sinusoidal load current duty. General Electric research has developed many analytical tools to accurately predict operational performance, evaluate material characteristics under dc stress, and test numerous prototype structures. It has also generated special manufacturing methods and processes to ensure successful assembly and test. The company has produced converter transformers and smoothing reactors to about 500kV dc, and will be prepared to build higher voltage units when the industry requires them. 1 reference, 9 figures.

    Recently, with the EHV large capacity transformers putting into operation continuously, reliability, rapidity and sensibility are in highly demand. It is imperative to consummate transformer differential protection and bring forward novel transformer main protection. Novel principles and algorithms are analyzed to solve some key problems still existing in power transformer main protection. Simulation and dynamic testing results verify this scheme is independent of core characteristics and transformer parameters and is suitable for the Y/△ connected transformers. By comparing with the transformer differential protection, technical routes of power transformer main protection is proposed.
