What is the major difference between P.T. & C.V.T ? Why CVT
is used in HT Transmission line in place of P.T.?

Answer Posted / shyam majgaonkar

Potential Transformer is Inductive step down transformer
used for measurement of voltage and protection where as cvt
is capacitive voltage transformer consisting of stack of
series connected capacitor the voltage across the capacitor
is used to measure the voltage.
It also serves the purpose of power line carrier
communication
