CT's transform line current down to a signal level that is acceptable to the relay. Multiple relays can use the same CT. Apply advanced protection and monitoring with flexible communications to two-, three-, and four-terminal transformers. Protect and control grounded and ungrounded, single- and double-wye capacitor bank configurations. Provide bus diferential and breaker failure protection, automation, and control. How are current transformers used in protection systems for power grids and substations? Current transformers (CTs) are the primary sensing interfaces between high-current power circuits and the low-voltage protection and metering equipment used in substations and transmission ne...
