while we select CT, why the CT ratio is divided by 5??
ex:250/5,15VA,CLASS-1 CT.Why it is divided by 5??Help me please

Answer / dinesh
CT has primary and secondary, Normally in industries most
of line cable is reffered as primary and your CT coil is
secondary. if you have a CT of 250/5 that means when there
will be a flow of 250A current in your primary side then
you will obtain 5A current on secondary side. Now if you
divide 250 by 5 you will get the CT ratio that is 50. now
if you obtain 3A in secondary that menas 3A mutiply by CT
ratio That is 50 you will get 150A flowing through primary.
your CT is used for protection as well as metering purpose.

Answer / velappan
it is not divided by 5
the primary current is 250A and secondary current is 5A in this case and 15VA is burden we connected on secondary

If any HVDC line is going with positive & negative(the negative usually have return path of current with earthing electrode). Now the question is if this HVDC earthed electrode which is using as return path and earthed any nearby 400kv or 220kv AC substation equipments. which will be the impact of this on AC substation & its equipment, how severe may be this and what should be the minimum distance require between HVDC earthed electrode and AC substation equipments? It's really an high engineering level question...Dare to answer and increase your knowledge.

Transformer Vector group: Ynd11 Rated Power: 353MVA Rated Current: 693A Voltage:294/20KV OLTC Type: T III Y1000 110/c 12193w Max Operation Current: 295A Step Voltage: 550V Arrangement in Tx windings: Y Connection Problem: Damage of Unit 1 Generator Transformer On Load Tap Changer (OLTC) Description of Incident: 9.00 a.m. :- Generator No Load test on excitation system started 10.30 a.m :- Carried out AVR change over test 11.30 a.m :- Preparation for Generator Manual Synchronizing test 12.00 a.m :- Manual Synshronizing test started. Observed incoming generator voltage higher than running voltage. CECR operator operated Generator Transformer OLTC to bring down the incoming generator voltage 12.03 a.m :-Generator Transformer abnormal alarm operated at Gen.Control Desk (CECR) CECR operater at Generator transformer bay informed that the transformer oil splashed out from OLTC. CECR operater informed that he heard explosion inside OLTC. Observed Oil level & Oil Flow alaram operated at Tranformer local annunciator. 12.05 am :- CECR operator 'Open Gen Field Breaker” 12.10 a.m. :- Elec1 team inspected the OLTC and found the OLTC rupture disk was broken and oil spilled at OLTC area. - Elec1 found the OLTC top cover bulging. Do anyone know why and possibility cause happen in this OLTC.
