Answer / raji.g
current transformer :(CT)
it is an electrical device which is used to measure the
high current,
Potential Transformer(PT):
To measure the high voltage
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 15 Yes | 5 No |
Answer / ajith
ct is used to measure corresponding current and to provide protection against fault currents
pt is used only to measure the amount of voltage in a particular circuit
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 2 Yes | 2 No |
Answer / gurmurat
the main purpose behind using CT,pt is to prevent the circuits from overcurrent,undervoltages nd earth faults
they step up/down high values of currents and voltages under measurements into desired values which could be measured by available instruments.

Answer / k.prakashchandra
In case of HT and EHT,to get rid of high voltage.In case of
LT CT ,to reduce the size of the leads.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 2 Yes | 5 No |
CT is a current instrment Transformer. It is used to
linearly step down the primary current as per the rated
current of controlling device attached with. It is used as
current sensor.
PT is a potential instrument transformer . It is used to
linearly step down the primary voltage as per the rated
voltage of controlling device attached with. It is used as
voltage sensor.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 3 Yes | 7 No |
Answer / k.prakashchandra
To convert current and voltage to the desired values
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 3 Yes | 8 No |
Answer / k.prakashchandra
Another purpose of using CT & PT is to remove the presence
of high voltage
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 2 Yes | 7 No |
Any formula to calculate neutral current in 3 phase 4 wire system
Draw an S.L.D of the main panel for a hospital, showing meter position. Essential loads are: 1) Equipment load 100 KW 2) Critical load 500 KW 3) Life AID Safety load 400 KW 4) NON-Essential load 200 KW 5) Other service loads 200 KW Calculate and suggest the size of the transformer, size of main cable, capacitor bank, and calculate the capacity of an emergency load having above first three mentioned loads is supplied by an emergency generator.
we convert 66kv to 33 kv to 11kv to 440v. why can't we directly convert 33kv to 440 ?
