all 3 current transformers (C.T) are burnt in a L.T Panel - what are the possible reasons..

Answer / animesh daripa

Suddenly disconnected the load from L.T side. The secondary of a current transformer is not disconnected from its load while current is flowing in the primary, as the transformer secondary willattempt to continue driving current across the effectively infinite impedance up to its core saturation voltage. This may produce a high voltage across the open secondary

I have a shop heater with a 1/3 hp capacitor start, induction motor driving the fan. Intermittently, the fan motor speeds up significantly for several seconds (15-60 sec) then slows to normal operating speed. The manufacturer suggested changing the capacitor which made no sense, but I did it to no avail. Could this possibly be caused by the centrifugal switch intermittently reconnecting the start winding?
