ABSTRACT:
A fault sensing system for protecting a transformer, the system including a partial range current limiting fuse connected in series in the primary circuit for the network transformer, a normally open vacuum switch connected to the primary circuit and shunted to ground between the current limiting fuse and the transformer, a solenoid actuated assembly for closing the vacuum switch and a fault sensing circuit assembly operatively connected to energize the solenoid assembly, the fault sensing circuit being normally de-energized and including a current transformer mounted on the primary circuit and a low voltage fuse element connected across the current transformer, the fault sensing circuit assembly being energized on operation of the low voltage fuse element to momentarily energize the solenoid.
