Answer / guru
The purpose of grounding the CT secondary is inorder to
protect the CT circuit in case of any earth fault in the CT
secondary circuit. Thus even there is an earth fault & the
CT is open the current will still circulates through the
ground to CT. It prevents the accidental open circuit in
the CT which may lead to develop a high potential in
secondary which may lead to CT blast.

How transformer winding & oil gets heat.
in cvt,there are two windings,1a,1n and 2a,2n.in my one project i use only one winding i.e.1a,1n. the other winding is not in use, so i connect it in open delta and want to close it by ibsertibg thermal resistor. the output of cvt is 132kv/115/sqrt3. plesae tell me exact value of resistor, so i may close it to avoid the resonance phenomenin. send me answer on this email adress please. aetcon-po@aetcon.com
