explain the operating principles of CVT & RVT

Answer Posted / narasiman kannan

A VT is a voltage transformer used for measurement &
protection purpose. It is small in capacity as compared to
power transformer. VT & CT are generally classified as
instrument transformers. A CVT is a Capacitor oltage
transformer which is associated with a stack of capacitor
voltage divider. As an example, if there are 2 stacks of
55KV capacitors in a CVT(connnected between one phase &
ground), the actual VT primary winding is connected across
the lower 55KV stack (lower stack to ground). By this, you
save the cost of primary winding & insulation. While a VT
has higher accuracy, CVT has less accuracy and high phase
angle error. CVTs are use for voltage measurement &
synchroniser supply and not for power relays & power
measurement where accuracy is important.

Is there a possibility to use such a treshold voltage for the NMOS part of a CMOS circuit that during the switching it will start conducting only after the PMOS part will be already closed, by this eliminating the leakedge current? Please note, I'm not asking about the well bias in standby mode, but about the "antileakedge" measures during normal operation.
