INFORMATION FOR THE CURRENT TRANSFORMERS

Operation Conditions for Current Transformers

1- When the secondary terminals are connected to the measuring or protection
equipments, one of the terminals should be earthed for safety, (see FIGURE CT-1)
2-The secondary circuit of a current transformer must not be operated
with an open-circuit,
3-The secondary winding of a current transformer which will not be connected
must be short- circuited and earthed. (see FIGURE CT-3)
4-For the transformer with reconnectable and/or tapped secondaries, un-used
terminals must be left open(see FIGURE CT-4)
5-The current transformers which have capacitive divider tap (Ck) must be connected
to indicator, if not used then must be earthed

INFORMATION FOR VOLTAGE TRANSFORMERS

Operation Conditions for Potential Transformers

1- When the secondary terminals are connected to the measuring or protection
equipments, one of the terminals should be earthed for safety.
(See FIGURE VT-1)
2- The base plate must be earthed.
3-The secondary circuits musnt be short-circuited during operation.
Otherwise the voltage transformers will be thermally destroyed.
4-If the secondary winding of a voltage transformer will not be used ,
then it must be open circuit with one of the terminals connected to the earth.
(See FIGURE VT-4)
5- For single phase transformers, N the terminal of the primary must be
earthed in the earthed (neutral) systems .(see FIGURE VT-5)
Other Important Points
- When using single pole insulated inductive voltage transformers:
It should be noticed that especially when the circuit is being closed or the
decaying period of an earth-fault there may occur ferro-resonances.
These ferro-resonances can lead to overheating and destruction of the
voltage transformer and can cause dangerous over-voltages.
In general ferro-resonances can be eliminated with by means of a constant
resistor in the open-delta of each voltage transformer.
The open- delta connection is also used for earth-fault monitoring.
- The open-delta connection is made among the secondary terminals
(da-dn) of three pieces of the single phase VT when the three
phase system is constituted.
- The single pole VT that are connected open-delta, must be earthed
just from one point as figure A
Otherwise a short-circuit is occured between the secondary windings.
