What is the need for checking knee point voltage for CT's?
Answer Posted / iamdon
CT is designed for operation in linear region.In this
region only, current changes acoording to turn ratio.Knee
point on magnetisation curve of core is the point at which
core begins to saturates.Once the core gets saturated, it
losses the transformation propery.It will carry same
secondary current for all primary current.This maloperation
is of no use as far as CT action is concerned.
Knee point sets the upper limits of B so as not to exceed
this limit during operation.Thus it ensures the intended
operation of CT.

we have 3.5MVA-11/6KV transformer. how can we calculate earth fault current and NGR calculation?
a)In a 3-phase 4-wire circuit, a circuit breaker is selected to protect the circuit whose highest fault level is 6.6 MVA. Determine the required minimum breaking capacity in kA. (Note: Covert 3-phase power in terms of kA to find answer.) b)Using the below, determine the required minimum making capacity in kA as a “peak value”. Rate breaking capacity (Icn) ka: Icn<= 1.5 Factor = 1.41 1.5
