4.3.8.7 Recommendations for current transformers
High-impedance principle
The sensitivity and reliability of the protection depend on the characteristics
of the current transformers. The CTs must have an identical transformation
ratio. It is recommended that all current transformers have an equal burden and
characteristics and that they are of the same type. This means that they should be
preferably from the same manufacturing batch, that is, an identical construction is
used. If the CT characteristics and the burden values are not equal, the calculation
for each branch in the scheme should be done separately and the worst-case result
is used. If the CT winding resistance and the burden of the branches are not equal,
the maximum burden equal to 3.2 Ω should be used for calculating the stabilized
voltage.

on each branch
The stabilizing voltage, that is the voltage appearing across the measuring branch
during an out-of-zone fault, is calculated assuming that one of the CTs connected in
parallel is fully saturated. The stabilizing voltage can be calculated using the formula
