WHAT HAPPENS IN DIFFERENTIAL PROTECTION IF CT REACHES ITS
KNEE VOLTAGE POINT?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / rukmagoud
Differential protection requires two cts for its connection.
If one of the CT reaches its Knee point voltage , then the
CT Enters into Saturation. so when Ct is in Saturation
state, its characteristic changes, i.e the current will
not be proportional to primary current thereby
differential current comes into picture in differential
relay , there by there is a chance of maloperation of relay.
This usually comes when there is any through fault.

DIFFERENTIAL PROTECTION FAIL. CT DOES NOT GIVE SECONDARY
CURRENT ACCORDING TO PRIMARY. EOR WHICH DIFFERENTIAL RELAY
OPERATE.

Answer / tony
Normally the knee point voltage must be
Vk > 2*Vs
Where Vs is the calculated max. voltage appears across the relay.
Beyond knee point the chara of CT is no longer proportional to the primary current and this cause faulty measuring by relay.Thus if we have higher Vk we can easily with stand higher Vs(fault equivalent seen by relay)

what is stray capacitance?
WE know that for Inductor X=2pifL,In DC f=0,then X=0 so,V=IX=0;But In the DC excitation of rotor of AC generator,DC motor field coil which coils are inductor so why does not applying DC voltage short the rotor coil of AC generator and field coil of motor?If it would then DC source might be damaged but it is not happened. Why does the strand conductor of Electrical power transmission line make twist?
