The distance protection relay measures the line voltage and line current at the relay location and evaluates the ratio between these quantities. Distance relays are widely used on transmission, and
The goal of this paper is to explain CT saturation to the protective relay engineer and to answer these questions in a clear and practical way. As this paper demonstrates, a proper
If the CT rating is not adequately set to reflect highest possible primary current flow, CT saturation may occur which can affect protection relay operation. This presentation covers the impacts of CT
The impact of CT saturation is different for different protection devices and schemes. This paper investigates the influence of CT saturation on overcurreent digital relays, in distribution systems
The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of CT saturation on overcurrent relays using both a physical relay test bench that includes actual protection CTs, and a modern relay test set configured
The primary function of a current transformer (CT) is to provide accurate current information to protective relays. But when a CT saturates and can no longer
Improper selections of current transformers will result in CT''s saturation during fault conditions which can affect protection relays operations.
In general, modeling the behavior of the core in current transformers (CTs) used for protection and the effects of its operation outside the linear region are commonly reported in literature. The problem in

Abstract—Current transformer (CT) saturation, while a fairly common occurrence in protection systems, is not often clearly understood by protective relay engineers. This paper forgoes the usual physics
Current-transformer (CT) saturation has a major impact on the operation of differential protection schemes. Transformer differential protection must maintain security during CT saturation
The relay operating times, obtained under similar fault conditions using both the test bench and the test set, will then be compared. The results obtained will then be used to determine
In other words, when the core is pushed beyond its magnetic limits, the secondary current no longer accurately represents the primary current. This
The behavior of the Current Transformer (CTs) is of utmost importance for protection engineers to ensure reliable operation of power system. CT magnetic saturation is a well-known phenomenon
