11kV SIDE NEUTRAL CT

Purpose = Restricted Earthfault Protection

Ratio
Make of the relay = MICOM

Type of the relay = P632

Trafo primary full load current (12.5 mva, 11kv) = 656 Hence tap 600 shall be selected
1200 - 600 / 1
Ratio = 600

Voltage ( kV ) = 11

Accuracy Class = PS

Transformer rating = 12.5 MVA

Impedence of transformer = 10 %

Maximum through fault, MVA = 12.5 x 100/10

= 125 MVA

Through Fault current at primary If = 125 x 1000/(1.732 x11 )

= 6560.99 A

Through Fault current at secondary Ifs = 10.935 A

Determining Knee Point Voltage

Restricted Earth Fault Relay (1) = 1

Cable Length ( m ) = 90 (Assumed)

Lead resistance at 70ºC for2.5 mm copper ( Ω/km ) =

2
8.9

Loop Resistance ( 2RL) ( Ω ) = 1.5966

Internal resistance of CT secondary = Rct (Ω)

Required Minimum Knee point Voltage > 2x1.1xIfs (Rct+2RL)

Required Vk of CT(volts) > 24 (Rct + 2 )
