The Hottest-Spot Temperature element provides a mechanism for detecting abnormal winding hottest-spot temperatures
inside the transformer. It can be set to alarm or trip in cases where the computed hottest-spot temperature is above the
pickup threshold for a user-specified time (considered as transformer overheating).
• XFMR HST PICKUP: Enter the hottest-spot temperature required for operation of the element. This setting should be
based on the maximum permissible hottest-spot temperature under emergency transformer loading conditions and
maximum ambient temperature.
• XFMR HST DELAY: Enter an appropriate time delay before operation of the element.

The Aging Factor element detects transformer aging in per-unit normal insulation aging. The element can be set for alarm
or trip whenever the computed aging factor is greater than the user-defined pickup setting for the specified time delay.
• AGING FACTOR PICKUP: Enter a value above which the aging factor element will operate. Enter a setting greater
than the maximum permissible aging factor under emergency loading conditions and maximum ambient temperature.
