CT & PT Sizing Calculation-UP

The document provides calculations for sizing current transformers (CTs) and potential transformers (PTs) for a 70 MW solar power plant in Saharanpur, Uttar Pradesh. It includes calculations for CT ratios, burdens for metering and protection, and selections of 200/1 and 400/1 CT ratings to measure currents of 168.4 A and 336.8 A respectively while allowing a 10% margin. PT burdens are also calculated with a selected margin of 10%. The sizing ensures accurate measurement for metering and protection within voltage and current ratings.
