Answer / searchvineet
every measuring type or protection special current
transformer comes with a ratio of there Ip/Is [Ip=current in
primary Is means current in the secondary] which generally
means how much minimum current you are injecting in the
primary and with respect to that how much you are getting on
the secondary.Lets say 100/1 means 1amps in secandry for
flow of 100 amps in primary.
know lets say if u inject more then 100 amps in the same CT
say 200amps what will happen??????
So the Answer for understanding the Knee point is above .
There is a level of sustaining in the CT up to which it will
work perfectly fine beyond that limit or after that limit it
will behave abnormally and there is a point came after which
it Will SATURATE that level is called as the knee point

That sinusoidal voltage of rated frequency applied to the secondary terminals of the CT, which when increase by 10 %, cause the exciting current to increase by 50%.
Knee point voltage, V= K.Is (Rct+Rb)
K= is a parameter to be specified by customer which depends on the system fault,
Is= secondry current
Rct= secondry winding resistance at 75 deg C
Rb= impedance of secondry circuit.
