Answer Posted / a.r.shah
Tan Delta is an effective tool in determining the
insulation condition of power cables using a VLF-TD System
Tan Delta measures the resistive component of a cable
system; a perfect cable is all capacitance and has no
resistance. The resistive component is caused by voids in
the insulation, electrical trees, water trees etc. The
resistive element causes the current not to lead the
voltage by 90° (something less) This is difference in angle
(less than 1° ) is the loss angle. The tangent of this loss
angle is the Tan Delta / or the tangent of the loss angle.

I have a current transformer with 1 main reading meter with transformer outside the building and a control panel having 5 CT reading meters with black round coils inside the building. I want to know, A) when current pass through the Transformers, will the current be reduced or be the same and after that B) when current pass through the CT meters with black round coils, will the current be reduced or be the same. C) in the above process will the reading of the main meter be same or different, from the total reading of all the 5 CT meters.
