1. INTRODUCTION
The comprehensive design of the RVM series of relays and the
TAPP circuitry simplifies the design of a tap change control
system. In order to provide a complete understanding of the
benefits and application this guide includes the use of the RTMU
monitor relay and RTPI tap position indicator when describing
the various applications.
2. NETWORK REQUIREMENTS
For this example the network voltage levels are: 33kV, 11kV
and LV.
Table 1 lists voltage drops starting at the in-feed point, this
example being only one of many, but used here for the purpose
of explanation. The tables use figures for fixed tap distribution
transformers based on a nominal output equivalent to the
statutory voltage and off load adjustment in 2.5% and 5%
steps. In practice the nominal voltage of fixed tap transformers
is higher than the statutory voltage, giving a fixed boost over the
levels used in this example.

3. SELECTION OF RELAYS
The method has two other advantages. The CT's for each
transformer do not have to be in the same phase and other
manufacturers relays can be incorporated into the overall
scheme provided they can be configured for Reverse Reactance
mode.

The simplest method of voltage control is to not use any buswires at all, Figure 3. Each transformer at a site is allowed to
operate independently of others. Any circulating current
between transformers connected in parallel on the same busbar will bias the SuperTAPP relays to operate in a direction
which will reduce the circulating current to a minimum.

5.3.1. Single Bus-Wire Group Method
This method has the advantage that the effective LDC value is
maintained when any of the transformers is switched out of
service. Furthermore if different basic settings and/or different
LDC settings have been applied to the different groups then the
correct compromise values will automatically be produced
(based on the average) when the bus-bars are paralleled or the
transformers are re-grouped.
This is probably the best all round scheme allowing both the
proper use of LDC and 100% flexibility in the system running
arrangement with very little compromise. SuperTAPP is unique
in providing this level of flexibility and simplicity with such a
small compromise in performance.

This ensures that the transformer to be restored (the follower)
will be kept on a similar tap to the master. This method does
not, however, always ensure the best result. At medium to high
substation loading there will be a significant step increase in
voltage at the instant the idle transformer is restored to service
due to the voltage drop being suddenly halved.
