What is the difference between CT for protection and Ct for
metering?
Answer Posted / a.k.tiwari
metering cts are used for the urpose of measuring the current and thus recording the consumption when secondary is connected to the metering terminals.
protection cts are used for protection against over current or faulty current, their secondary is thus connected to the protection relays and the to the tripping coil. there may be series or shunt trip mechanism, thus the burden(VA) of protection ct is more as compared to metering cts.
however the accuracy class of measuring ct is of more significance as they are used for measurment.

If any HVDC line is going with positive & negative(the negative usually have return path of current with earthing electrode). Now the question is if this HVDC earthed electrode which is using as return path and earthed any nearby 400kv or 220kv AC substation equipments. which will be the impact of this on AC substation & its equipment, how severe may be this and what should be the minimum distance require between HVDC earthed electrode and AC substation equipments? It's really an high engineering level question...Dare to answer and increase your knowledge.

I'm generating a pulse of 3V with frequency 80Hz (12.5ms time period) and pulse duration 0.125ms and feeding it to a transformer since i want the pulse to get amplified around 60V. At the output amplification s happening but the pulse is changed to a spike, can you tell me what could be the reason? (an ordinary transformer 220V-12V stepdown transformer is reverse connected ie. now it is 12V-220V stepup and voltage amplification happens)
