B. Compensated current differential relay
As in (7), IdA of the conventional relay does not consider the
exciting current. Thus, during magnetic inrush or overexcitation, IdA may exceed the threshold and the relay
maloperate. The proposed relay uses the same restraining
current as the conventional relay but modifies the differential
current to include the effect of the exciting current. Fig. 2
shows the flowchart of the proposed relay.
To cope with the remanent flux, the proposed relay obtains
the modified differential current separately before saturation

The left hand side of (15) can be obtained from eA, eB, and
eC considering the turns ratio. Thus, i can be estimated by
solving (15). Finally iab, ibc and ica can be estimated from (10).
2) Before saturation (sat_ind = 0)
Before saturation, i.e. sat_ind = 0 in Fig. 2, the modified
differential current idA is obtained using

V. CONCLUSION
This paper describes a compensated current differential
relay suitable for Y- transformer protection. The procedure
of estimating the delta winding current was proposed. In
addition, to cope with the remanent flux, the modified
differential current was obtained separately before saturation
and after saturation. Before saturation, the proposed relay
calculates the core-loss current and uses it to obtain the
modified differential current. When the start of saturation of
the core is detected, the core flux is estimated and used as an
initial value to calculate the core flux and the magnetizing
current. The relay obtains the modified differential current by
