Answer / sundar

generally the CT draws load according to its rating,if it
is drawing more then that specified rating then there is
chance for ct saturation.

What is mean CT Saturation? How to calculate?..

Answer / nishant

CT saturation occurs when secondary of CT is left open while
primary is carrying the line current. Enormous flux is build
up in the core due to primary current, secondary being open
there is no counter flux to control it. As a result, CT core
saturates. Hence, CT Secondary should not be left open while
primary being enerzized. It should be rather shorted by
closing CT shorting contacts.

On load tap changer (OLTC) explode? 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.
