Transformer Circuit Protection

Transformers must be protected against short circuit and overload.

Primary Circuit

The primary side of the Transformer should be protected against short circuit thereby cutting the supply voltage in the event of a short circuit fault.

The rating of the primary protection device has to take into account the high inrush current during energizing of the Transformer.

The table below gives suggested protection values to avoid nuisance tripping on inrush.

Secondary Circuit

The secondary circuit should be protected against short circuit and overload.

The value of the protection should be the same or less than the rated output current.
