CT BURDEN CALCULATION
CT DATA
CT NO CT Ratio Class Burden Knee point Voltage Internal resistance at 75C
1 150/5A 5P20 3.75 VA 19.78 V 0.048
2 250/5A 5P20 5VA 24.725 0.071
3 800/5A 5P20 5VA 29.304 0.136
4 1500/5A 5P20 10VA 60.439 0.267
5 1600/5A 5P20 10VA 64.46 0.287
6 2500/5A 5P20 15VA 91.575 0.426

CT No. 6 : FOR OVER CURRENT RELAY

Sn = 15 VA.
Ipri = 2500 A.
Isec = 5 A.
If, max = 10000 A. (Maximum Fault )
RCT = 0.426 Ω (CT. secondary winding resistance at 75C)
Vk = 91.575 V. (Knee point voltage of CT.)

CABLE DATA
Cross section = 4 sq.mm. Length = 3
Resistance = 4.61 Ω/km

Find Rcable
Rcable= 4.61 x 3/1000 Ω
Rcable= 0.01383 Ω

RELAY DATA
Over current relay BURDEN = 0.09 VA
Find RRELAY
2
RRELAY = S/I
= 0.09 / 5
RRELAY = 0.018 Ω

Actual burden of CT Sa = I x ( RRELAY + Rdim + Rcable )

Sa = 0.79575

ALFa = ALFn x Sn + Sin

Sa + Sin

where ALFa = Actual ALF

ALFn = Rated ALF (20)
Sin = Internal burden of the CT secondary winding = In2 x RCT
Sn = Rated burden of the CT
Sa = Actual burden of the CT
In = Rated secondary current
then
ALFa = 44.82013
Ipri x ALFa = 112 kA ……(a)

Consider maximum short circuit current at :

Maximum fault current = 10 kA ……(b)

(a) > (b), the CT is OK for through fault current without saturation. …...The result is ok.

Minimum required saturation voltage for fault protection check

Vk,CT  If / N x (RCT + Rcable,loop + Rdevice ) ; N = CT Ratio

 1.83132 volt ……(c)

from CT data Vk,CT = 91.575 volt ……(d)

(d) > (c), the knee point voltage of this CT is satisfy in this requirement …...The result is ok.
