why sec of ct should be kept shorted

Answer Posted / vishal ingle

the CT works on the principle of
Primary AT = Secondary AT
When current is flowing through primary, there must be
path for the secondary current to flow.
Else heavy ovevoltage will be induced in the secondary
winding which is sufficient for insulation failure and
busrcting of CT.
Hence CT secondary should always be short circuited

What is the need of earthing transformer for delta side of a transformer. (Think of a line section between a star/delta transformer at a grid substation and delta/star transformer at a village. An earthing transformer is there at the delta side of the star/delta transformer at grid substation). As there are no ground reference there will not be fault current if a one phase is grounded. Further L-L phase will be sensed by the primary side of star/delta transformer as a L-G fault. So why an earthing transformer is required at delta side
