CT Knee Point Voltage Calculation Sheet



Primary Secondary Volt
Resistance Resistance Length
In MVA In AMP In kV In ohm In
ohm/km in Meter In %
1 CT ratio of the trasformer REF Protection -
1200 1 - - - - -
2 Transformer Rating, MVA 20 - - -
- - - -
3 % Impedance, %Z - - - -
- - - 13.9
4 Voltage of Line Side, KVLV - - -
11 - - - -
5 CT Secondary Resistance, RCT (ohm) - -
- - 6 - - -
6 Resistance of control cable of 2.5 Sq. mm.
- 8.5 -
7 Loop Length of Control Cable - - -
- - - 120


Calculation:

1) Fault Current at Primary Side of CT (kA) =
MVA/*100(%Z*1.732*KLV) 7.55

2) Fault Current at Secondary Side of CT, If (A)=
6.29

3) Cable Lead Resistance, RL (Ohm)=
1.02


4) Knee Point Voltage Vk (Volt) = 2If(RCT+2RL)
101.2




REMARKS : -

Knee Point Voltage of CT provided by CGL for REF CT
= 115V and for Differental CT = 200V are in order.

hi I have done 3 yrs diploma in electrical engg after 10+2. I have 16 years of work experience into design proposals sales and engg application development in LV/MV swithcgear and sub station automation field. I want to apply for immigration to new zealand but I am not sure whether I qualify or not since I dont have a degree. Can anyone advice? Thanks Riz

At the starting of dc motor and syn.motor and induction motor high current flowing through the winding. Due to this the windings burnt out. To avoid this different types of starters are used. But incase of transformer what Will be used (At starting no emf is induced in the primary winding)?
