Transformer Neutral CT Sizing

The document discusses CT sizing calculations for protection schemes on a 132kV transformer. It provides calculations for sizing a CT for definite time ground overcurrent protection and restricted earth fault protection. For the definite time protection, the total burden on the CT is calculated to be 1.76VA, which is less than the selected burden and is therefore safe. For restricted earth fault protection, the required knee point voltage is calculated to be greater than 66.26V, and the selected knee point voltage of 500V is sufficient.
