4.2.8 Auto CT Detection
The active filter performs an auto detection of the installed CT. The CT auto detection can be conducted both while the
system is running and when there is no load. The filter injects a prefixed current of known amplitude and phase angle and
measures the returned CT input. The performance is conducted on each phase individually for several frequencies to check
that phase sequence and RMS are set correctly.
The Auto CT detection is pending on the following conditions:
•
Active filter bigger than 10% of CT RMS rate.
•
CTs installed on source (PCC) side (auto CT not possible for load side CT installation).
•
Only one CT per phase (not possible for summation CTs).
•
CTs are part of below standard range:
600
750
1000
1250
1500
2000
2500
3000
3500
4000
Table 4.8 Primary Rating [A]
Most restrictions on the CTs come from the installation, such as required cable length, temperature conditions, square
section of conductors, standard or split core layout, etc. A broad range of different current transformers can be used
independently of brand and type.
