This is the main reason for power transformer protection requirements to be so high. Sensitivity level is a key element in inter-winding faults detection. Incomplete winding faults that occur in the multi-wire transformer windings, when multiple parallel wires form a coil, are very hard to detect, this is why it is the most challenging issue for the differential protection.
