What is the difference between CT for protection and Ct for
metering?
Answer Posted / mahesh
Metering ct needs high accuracy(ie,value of metering ct should be small 0.1,0.2,etc.,) than protection ct ie, metering ct accuracy class will be=0.1,0.2,0.5,1,3 and 5
eg;
The accuracy class of measuring or metering CT is 0.1, means the maximum permissible limit of error is 0.1%, more clearly, if we try to measure 100 A with a 0.1 class CT, the measured value may be either 100.1 or 99.9 A or anything in between these range.
for protection CT the accuracy class is low (ie, value of protection ct should be high 5P,10P,15P)

Please clarify, 1. Is it required to lay two runs of GI wire along with Armoured LT cable if it is laid between one big mains (63Amps TPN SDF) to small main (32A TPN SDF) with proper glanding termination? 2. If the armoured cable with proper glanding is laid from DB to CNC machine, is it required to run two runs of body earthing to the Machine from DB? 3.If the armoured cable with proper glanding is laid from Substation to Hangar, distance is approx. 100 mtrs, is it required to do earthing at shop area though the primary termination at substation is earthed through gland.
