why current transformer secondary side should be shorted ?

Answer Posted / santosh89

yes above answers in context of not being open circuited are true.
But If the secondary impedence is not kept as low as possible(as during short circuit ), then there is a voltage drop across it , which result in a decrease in CTs accuracy.
