RESISTANCE CALCULATION FOR PROTECTION DEVICE AGAINST FERRORESONANCE FOR VT

The calculation for minimum resistance value for protection device against Ferro resonance for VT

Formula:

R= 3√3 Us2/ Pe

where:
Us : rated voltage of the VT secondary, connected to the resistance (V)
Pe : rated thermal burden of the VT secondary winding concerned by the resistance (VA).

Us=110/3

Pe =50VA

=3√3 x (110/3)2/50

=139.71 =150Ω

The recommended minimum values for the resistance R is 150Ω for protection device against Ferro
resonance for PT
