Medium Voltage Transformers
Information
Instrument Transformers: An instrument transformer is a piece of electrical equipment which converts primary
electrical values current or voltage-into comparable secondary values which are suitable for the devices to which it is
connected. They are defined in two kinds;
Current transformers convert primary rated current to a proper current level (1A…5A) which can be used by metering or protection devices. They can have several secondary windings with magnetically separated cores of the same
or different characteristics.
Voltage Transformers, isolate the primary - side rated voltage from the connected instruments and protection
circuits and convert the primary voltage into a measurable secondary voltage which is true in magnitude and phase.
Extended Current Rating;
It is the value that Current Transformer can withstand at defined current value while remaining in the limits of
current error. As described in IEC 61869-2, Standard values of rated primary current 120%, 150% and 200% of primary
current.
Limits of current error and phase displacement for measuring current transformers
As described IEC 61869-2;
For classes 0.1 – 0.2 – 0.5 and 1, the current error and phase displacement at rated frequency shall not exceed the
values given in table when the secondary burden is any value from 25 % to 100 % of the rated burden.
For classes 0,2 S and 0,5 S the current error and phase displacement at the rated frequency shall not exceed the
values given in table when the secondary burden is any value from 25 % and 100 % of the rated burden
