87BB Sensitive Differential Earth Fault CT Requirements
The Sensitive Differential Earth Fault (SDEF) shall be enabled only on High Impedance
Earthed Networks.
To enable the SDEF the CTs have to comply with the additional following requirement:

Support of IEEE C Class CTs
Px40 series protection is compatible with ANSI/IEEE current transformers as specified in the
IEEE C57.13 standard. The applicable class for protection is class "C", which specifies a
non air-gapped core. The CT design is identical to IEC class P, or British Standard class X,

For 5A CTs, the typical resistance is 0.0004 ohm secondary per primary turn (for 1A
CTs, the typical resistance is 0.0025 ohm secondary per primary turn)
IEC/BS knee is typically 5% higher than ANSI/IEEE knee
IEC/BS knee is specified as an internal EMF, whereas the "C" class voltage is
specified at the CT output terminals. To convert from ANSI/IEEE to IEC/BS requires
the voltage drop across the CTs secondary winding resistance to be added.
IEEE CTs are always rated at 5A secondary
