What is different between Metering CTs and Protection CTs?
Answer Posted / rk
metering cts are desined not to record fault current i.e.
if ctr is Ex. 200/5 at a fault current of 2000amp the
secondary current would be still 5 amps not 50amp. reverse
is in prot cts it will serve 50amps if its ALF permits .
Metring CT are like acc class 0.5 etc Protn CTs have 5P10,
5P20etc i.e. it will maintain its ratio up to 20times the
the primary current (200amp)of ct.

how to find 5 kilo meter long under ground 33 kv cable fault location if IR VALUE shows 0.05 M ohm @5000 volt.and cable fault locator shows some time fault distance 3 kilo meter ,3.7 kilo meter and some time 1 kilo meter? now how to find the fault location that where is leakage. note--it is tested with 5000 kv megger and insulation resistance is 0.05 M ohm. and some time 0.03 M ohm comes.

what is KA rating and how can we choose switchgears on applications
I just purchased a 4 position cam switch to be used to operate a 3-speed blower motor. The motor is a 10 amp motor and has 3 wires that are used to control speed. The cam switch was rated at 660V 20 amps but when I received it, I noticed that it has AC-15 operational current rating (Ie) of 4/5 amps. If I am reading the label correctly. the 4/5 amps is related to 440v/220V (Ue). Other ratings are AC-3: 5.5A, AC2: 7.5A and AC-4: 1.5A. My questions are 1) Is it safe to use this switch with the motor I have 2) what is the difference between the 20 amp Ith ratting and the Ie operational ratings?
