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

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.

No idea about calculation...

2 Answers Bhel,

The capacity of the transformer is 20/25 MVA, Ratio is 132/11 KV, Vactor group YNyno. and impedance is 10.07%. As per the calculation the secondary current is 1312.2Amps. The maximum fault current the transformer should sustain is 13.030KA. How many times the transformer should sustain the maximum short circuit current of 13.030KA over a period up 1 Year. The transformer is repaired one & 10 Years old.
