CT specification:
– 1 or 5A secondary current rating,
– 15 VA burden for up to 30 meters with 2.5 mm² cable. For longer cables lengths refer to
case of the CT is shared with other loads, the VA burden shall be adapted accordingly,
– Class 1 resolution or better,
– Primary side current rating should be sufficient to monitor the total line current (including transient phenomena
such as drive/motor starts).
The APCQ capacitor bank is provided with HITACHI ENERGY RVC/RVT controller with automatic adaptation to net-
work phase-rotation.
Maximum rms current of the
downstream loads (including starting
current of DC drives):
X1 = ..... Arms
Multiply X1 by
1.6:
X2 = ..... Arms
CT cables > 30 meters?
NO
Select the CT such that:
• rating at primary ≥ X2
• rating at secondary : 5A
• burden ≥ 15VA
• class 1 accuracy or better
