What is mean CT Saturation? How to calculate?

Answer Posted / lokesh devpura

Ans 6 and 9 are combinely correct. Actually if we want to
check CT saturation that means ouput current must be
correct according to its rating.
And output current is nothing but a voltage across its
secondary which is calculated as its current(like 1V=10A)
i.e. if 1 V output vltg across secondary you find that
means instrument will read 10A current.
So if CT gets saturated then it will read more than 1V and
correspondingly we find false output current.

WHY THE RATINGS OF THE TRANSFORMER IS 33KV WHY NOT OTHER???

1926


We have drive feeding an output contactor for a 5000 hp motor @ 5kV application. The motor FLA is 629amps x 1.25% service factor = 786.25 amps The cable that we current have in place between the drive and the output contactor is 350kcmil- MV-105 (parallel cables). Per the NEC table 310.60 (C) (69). This show the cable ampacity is at 615 amps per cable for a rating of 1230 amps. We have derated the cable for the cable tray and the multiple cables application and our calculations show that after the correction factor factor we are at 922amps. 1230 amps x .75% correction factor factor = 922.5 amps. The customer is driving us to then use another safety factor of .25% off of the already derated cable. Can you please provide a longhand calculation for your solution on this application?
