Why the meters sonnected to metering core of CT are not
damagedon event of a fault??? Explain the phenomena??

Answer Posted / k.prakashchandra

The iron core of metering CT is smaller compared to that of
protection scheme, for accuracy. Its core reaches magnetic
saturation , if the current exceeds the rated value by a
certain value. After the saturation is reached, the
secondary current wii not incease with the primary
current .
