Two major differences:
1. Accuracy class: Metering needs high accuracy at load
current while Protection need not have that high accuracy.
2. Safety Factor: It determines the multiplicity of load
current at which the CT saturates. Metering ct should have
lesser value so that it saturates before the meters can get
damaged due to some abnormality. Protection should have
high value since its main purpose desires the ct to
withstand high fault currents to be sensed back to the
relays.
There is another special class ct that combines the
features of both the above used for differential protection.

what is through fault?
at meter room 50 hrc switch installed,but there are not get earthing proper,so what happen?and 11kv transformer out put going in to hrc main 400a three nog each? so earthing is require for all switch? (some customer made earthing at there home.)
What is meant by Low Resistance Cable and High Resistance Cable.
can we choose current transformer secondary, to calculate residual flux in a power transformer, so as its saturation is close to the saturation level of power transformer?
hi I have done 3 yrs diploma in electrical engg after 10+2. I have 16 years of work experience into design proposals sales and engg application development in LV/MV swithcgear and sub station automation field.
