Table 2-1 Recommended settings for current transformer data
1)
If n'/n ≤ 1.50, setting = calculated ratio; if n'/n > 1.50, setting = 1.50
With this data the device establishes an approximate CT error characteristic and calculates the restraint quan-
tity (see also Section 2.3).
Calculation example:
Current transformer 5P10; 20 VA
Transformation 600 A / 5 A
Internal burden 2 VA
Secondary lines 4 mm
2
Cu
Length 20 m
Device 7SD5 , I
N
= 5 A
Burden at 5 A, 0.3 VA
The resistance of the secondary lines is (with the resistivity for copper ρ
Cu
= 0.0175 Ωmm

/m)
Here, the most unfavourable case is assumed, i.e. the current (as is the case with single-phase faults) flows
back and forth via the secondary lines (factor 2). From that the power for nominal current I
N
= 5 A is calculated
P
l
= 0.175 Ω · (5 A)
2
= 4.375 VA
The entire connected burden consists of the burden of the incoming lines and the burden of the device:
P' = 4.375 VA + 0.3 VA = 4.675 VA
Thus the ratio of the accuracy limit factors is as follows
