How do determine the Size of a Droop Current Transfomer for
Paralleling of Two Generators, Say I need a Droop Current
transformer for a 600 kW generator need to be parallel with
a 800 kW generator, etc.

Answer Posted / satish babu

Consider two parameters to descide the CT ratings,

a) Primary current on the phase is 1050 amps,Consider No of
leads it has from the generator - If one cable is connected
your primary can be 1000A-1200A
If two leads are used , use only one lead as CT primary
then the CT primary can be 500-600 A

b) Your secondary can be 3A / 1A / 0.5A depending upon the
AVR used

When we use air circuit breaker, it has O/L protection ,time delay SC protection, Instataneous SC protection & ground fault protection. They all have some setting range. But what is the suitable/allowable setting for the above protection which will be safe for the equipment? For example-O/L protection setting have a range of (0.4,0.45,0.5,0.55,0.6,0.65,0.7,0.8,0.9,1.0)xIn Time delay SC protection have a range of (1.25,1.5,2,3,4,6,8,10,12)xIn Time delay setting is 0.02,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4 Instataneous setting is fixed to 20xIn Gound fault setting is given 100A,300A,600A,900A,1200A This setting are for 2500A ACB. So what will be the basic allowable setting for the above protection? is there any formulae to calculate this<
