Maximum primary fundamental frequency current that passes two main CTs and
the power transformer (A)

The rated secondary CT current (A)

n
The nominal current of the protection IED (A)
R
ct
The secondary resistance of the CT (

)
R
L
The resistance of the secondary wire and additional load ( W ). The loop
resistance containing the phase and neutral wires must be used for faults in
solidly grounded systems. The resistance of a single secondary wire should be
used for faults in high impedance grounded systems.
S

In substations with breaker-and-a-half or double-busbar double-breaker arrangement,
the fault current may pass two main CTs for the transformer differential protection
without passing the power transformer. In such cases and if both main CTs have equal
ratios and magnetization characteristics the CTs must satisfy equation
516 and
equation 518 .
