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.

\[V_{saturated}=ALF*\frac{VA_{rated}}{I_{nominal}}\]

where:

\[VA_{rated}=I_{nominal}*\frac{ANSI_{voltage}}{20}\]

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
