but in the unused taps, owing to auto-transformer action, voltages much
higher than design limits might be induced.
Basic data:
Current transformer ratio: 100/5 A (Note: Must be the same at all locations)
CT Class: C200
Secondary resistance: 0.1 Ohms (At 100/5 Tap)
Cable loop resistance: <100 ft AWG10 (one way between the junction point and the farthest
CT) to be limited to approximately 0.1 Ohms at 75deg C
Note! Only one way as the tertiary power system grounding
is limiting
the ground-fault current. If high ground-fault current exists use two way
cable length.
Max fault current: The maximum through fault current is limited by the reactor reactance
and the inrush will be the worst for a reactor for example, 800 A.

Check from the table of selected resistances the required series stabilizing resistor
value to use. Since this application requires good sensitivity, select R Series
= 100
ohm, which gives an IED current of 200 mA.
To calculate the sensitivity at operating voltage, refer to equation
20, which gives an
acceptable value
, ignoring the current drawn by the non-linear resistor
. A little lower
sensitivity could be selected by using a lower resistance value.
