CT Supervision Relay Working Principle - Electrical4u
CT Supervision Relay Working Principle - Electrical4u
In last study about high impedance differential protection, we have calculated stabilizing resistance value for increasing the
protection stability. In that case, we assume the worst condition of CT, that the CT would be completely saturated. But, In
Intermediate conditions, where the CT is partially saturated, In this condition, to increases the stability margin we use CT
supervision relay.
When carrying load current an open circuit CT will cause unbalance in any current balance group. As this can cause instability it
is normal practice to use a sensitive relay, with an associated relatively long time delay, to detect this condition. This integration
of protection, CT supervision and associated timers makes it easy to simplify system design and secondary wiring.
···
The Current flow in each phase of the CT is monitored by the CT supervision relay. A coil is connected in Parallel with Current
transformer of each phase terminal. The CT super vision relay monitors all three phase of the Current transformer. Under
Normal conditions the current flow in all three phase is equal the relay become inoperative.
