Burden CAn be denoted in VA or in

Ohms.Consider that to a PT
secondary we have a relay connected
to it.Now the Total
impedance on the PT secondary is
given by Zt = Zsec + Zlead
+ Zrelay.where the Zsec is the
impedance of the PT
Secondary,Zlead be the impedance of
the lead between the PT
secondary and the Relay,Zrelay be
the Impedance of the relay.

Now from the VA capacity of the

PT,under normal operating
condition of the PT,calculate the
secondary current, Isec.

burden interms of VA can be obtained

as Zt*Isec.
Burden interms of Ohms can be had
from - Rated
VA/((Isec)*(Isec))

As Burden increases beyond the

prescribed value, the
accuracy decreases below the
allowable value.

Hello Mr.Raghavendran CT purpose

to reduce the current rating of the
system to measuring purpose and
The Sy will be opened they will higher
current carrying capacity in SY so
conductor size will be high and step
up high high voltage generate higher
harmonics it will create serious
hazardous in CT CKt

Why substation battery room is coulered black?

dear all, in motor operation , motor is of 100 hp and bimetal

relay setting is 130 amp, if relay is getting tripped on 120
amp balance current what can be the reason? Relay is newly
replaced. I dont know but is there any frequency effect in thit
case? Can frequency variation affect bimetal relay
operation?
