Answer / nur.asidik

let call Irestrain as Itot, because different relay have different characteristic to define Ires.
for micom P54x, Itot =(|I1|+|I2|)/2,
for sepam T87, Itot =Max(|I1|,|I2|)
where I1=primary current
I2=secondary current,
it need to be consider to calculate transformer ratio factor

Answer / raghavendran.r

It requires the HT and LT side current ratings to be calculated.The current on the HT side comes around 606A(line current) and on the LT side it is 1818 A(line current), Considering that HT and LT are Delta and Star type wounded respectively.
But for Merz-Prize protection, the CT on Delta side should be Star wound and for the CT on the Star side of Power Trans,it should be delta Wound.
So calculating the primary currents of the CT1 and CT2 we get 350A and 1818A respectively.
Now we have a standard CT ratio of 400/5A and 2000/5A in the market.Which can be used here.
Now the formula for Operating current is mod[Is1 - Is2] = K[Is1+Is2]/2 = K * Iavg.Where K = .1 a constant.
