Dear all,

Can anybody tell me that how to choose CT for a specific
load? I have a 200kw induction motor, which ratio CT should
be installed? Is there a formula or calculation that
determines the CT ratio for a load?

Regards.

Another method.Divide KW by 0.75 (lowest pf expected) to get
KVA. Calculate current which is about 380 A at 400 V line
voltage.You can choose a CT 0f either 400 or 500 A as
primary current.The secondary current of CT is decided by
meter and relays.This is generally either 1 or 5 A .
