Which protective action is triggered when a power transformer experiences an internal winding fault?

💡 Explanation

When an internal winding fault occurs, a differential current relay activates because it detects a significant imbalance between the current entering and exiting the transformer windings, indicating a fault within said winding. Therefore, differential relay activation results rather than overcurrent coordination, temperature alarms, or Buchholz pressure changes, each needing unique triggers.
