Open publisher page 13 citations

Abstract

Current transformers (CTs) are the basic interconnection between the power system and protective relays. One of the practical concerns for the protection engineer is the actual ability of a CT to replicate the primary current. This paper describes how CT replication error impacts protective relay performance by presenting three actual examples of relay performance.
