  • Patent number: 11982692
    Abstract: An apparatus for identifying a fault in the windings of a distribution transformer, a transformer, and an associated method, said device comprising: a first Rogowski current sensor at a high-voltage incoming current terminal, and a second Rogowski current sensor in tandem at a low-voltage outgoing current terminal and at a low-voltage incoming current terminal; a first conductor of the low-voltage outgoing current terminal, passed through in one direction through the second sensor, and a second conductor of the low-voltage incoming current terminal, passed through in the opposite direction through the second sensor; the first and second sensors generate output signals indicating the primary current and the secondary current; both signals are integrated, generating output signals proportional to the primary current and the secondary current, obtaining a transformation ratio, which is compared with a threshold, and sending a fault signal if said threshold is exceeded.
