needs to be compensated to provide a correct differential current calculation result
on both ends.
The operation characteristics related settings are given in units as percentage of
the current transformer secondary nominal current on each line end protection
relay. For the actual primary setting, the corresponding CT ratio on each line end
has to be considered. An example of how the
should be selected on both line ends in the example case to compensate the
difference in the nominal levels can be presented.
Another example for differential application without in-zone transformer where line
rated current is 400 A. The ratio of CTs are 800/1 and 400/1.

application
The settings for
are:
CT ratio Correction (A) = 800 A / 400 A = 2.000
CT ratio Correction (B) = 400 A / 400 A = 1.000
The CT secondary current often differs from the rated current at the rated load of
the power transformer. The CT transforming ratio can be corrected on both sides of
the power transformer with the
First, the rated load of the power transformer is calculated on both sides when the
apparent power and phase-to-phase voltage are known.
