· VA burden calculation for lead wires

AC resistance for 2.5 sqmm copper wires (Ω / m) R = 0.00887 Ω/m

CT secondery current = 1 A
VA burden calculation for Protection lead wires
Distance between CT chamber (protection core) to Protection Equip. dp = 10 m
=> Total wire length = Lp = 2 x 10 = 20 m
2
VA burden for Protection lead wires = I x R x Lp
= 1 x 1 x 0.00887 x 20
= 0.1774 VA
· VA burden calculation for Metering lead wires
Distance between CT chamber (metering core) to Metering Equip. dm = 10 m
=> Total wire length = Lm = 2 x 10 = 20 m
· VA burden for Metering lead wires = I2 x R x Lm
= 1 x 1 x 0.00887 x 20
= 0.1774 VA

1 Protection Lead Wire Burden 0.1774 1 Metering Lead Wire Burden 0.1774
2 7SJ62 0.05 2 Analog ammeter 1.5
3 Multifunction meter 0.15

Total 0.2274

Total 1.8274

· Conclusion:
Calculated VA Available VA
Protection 0.2274 15
Metering 1.8274 15

From above table it is celar that requried (calculated) VA is less than the available VA. i.e. Calculated VA <
Available VA
So CT VA is Sufficient.
Applicable for Incomer, Buscopler, TR1 & TR2 type of feeders
