Answer / aashish
Because a very high voltage is generated in the secondary due to large no of turns so if open circuited ct will get damage

Answer / raja
Understand CT is a voltage step up transformer.
HT side has higher voltage but low current.
LT side has lower voltage but high current.
So for CT of rating 500/1 Amps, 500 Amps side(Primary of CT) has very low voltage and 1 Amp side (Secondary of (CT)
has very high voltage(Insane value in KVs).
This high voltage is beyond the maximum impulse withstand voltage of the CT and it blasts the CT. Hence secondary is always short circuited.
Current and voltage are inversely proportional.

Answer / vipin singhal
when secondary is open then in primary flows very large current which burn the winding of the core.

Answer / gautam
if we open circuit the secondary terminal current across this terminal falls to zero. as VI is constant for a Xmer voltage across secondary side increase drasticly,which results electrical breakdown across secondary.

why we use the fuse in only one wire? althrough in ac current the current flows in both directions. why the neutral wire can be taken half the magnitude of phase wire while same current returns from neutral wire?
IF we have 500kva transformer & know the current on HT & LT side, how can we consider for its breaker?

Differentiate between digital phase converter and ordinary phase converter.
Before i went to bed my master bathroom lights were working fine. At 2 am, when I went to use the lights, none of them were working. The outlets throughout the bathroom work, but the lights and fan above the toilet don't. I have two panels of switches. The one panel has four switches. One of the switches turns on the hall light, and that works. The other three are to other lights, and they don't. The other panel has three switches. One of those is to the fan, and the other is to a light above the toilet. The other is a to light that is also on that other panel. I tried the breakers, and the one that turns off the outlets, marked for the bathrooom, turns on and off the outlets. None seemed to be tripped. I checked the lightbulbs, and they are fine. Please help
