electricpy.fault.ct_satratburden¶

electricpy.fault.ct_satratburden(Inom, VArat=None, ANSIv=None, ALF=20)[source]¶

Electrical Current Transformer (CT) Saturation at Rated Burden Calculator.

A function to determine the Saturation at rated burden.

$$V_{saturated}=ALF\ast \frac{V{A}_{rated}}{I_{nominal}}$$

where:

$$V{A}_{rated}=I_{nominal}\ast \frac{ANS{I}_{voltage}}{20}$$

Parameters:¶

Inom : float¶

Nominal Current

VArat : float, optional, exclusive¶

The apparent power (VA) rating of the CT.

ANSIv : float, optional, exclusive¶

The ANSI voltage requirement to meet.

ALF : float, optional¶

Accuracy Limit Factor, default=20.

Returns:¶

Vsat – The saturated voltage.

Return type:¶

float
