This material being presented is based on good engineering and industry practices. It also contains views and
engineering approach of the presenter based on his personal experiences as a practicing engineer.
Neither the presenter nor Quanta Technology is responsible for any damages, direct or consequential, that may
arise as a result of applying the knowledge gained from this course. Every application in the field needs specific
approach based on all the facts surrounding the application. The material presented is general and must be
applied after taking all facts and deviations into consideration.

• Factors affecting saturation
Saturated CT
– Iron core cross section
CT –Sec I
– Number of secondary turns CT Turns Ratio
– Burden

K* ALF is = or > K DF
I SC MAX =30,000 A
So R BC is 1.5 +.3=1.8
R I = 4 ohms
If K DF was 1 then K ALF calculated will be 15.2 in which case the rated
ALF of 10 will not be enough and we will have to specify
K ALF will have to chosen as 20 instead of 10.
