9. Instrument transformers are being used to step down the voltage and
current within the range of the existing measuring instrument.
12. The turns ratio of a current transformer is NP / NS = IS / IP.
13. The primary current of 200 amperes would produce a secondary current of
5 amperes in the Ammeter connected.
14. The burden of CT is the maximum load (in VA) that can be applied to the
secondary of CT.
In CT the primary has one or more turns of thick conductor and the
secondary has large no of turns of the thin conductor whereas in PT the
primary has large no. of turns of thin conductors and secondary has few no.
of turns of thick wires.
