The D?l range of current transformers (CTs) incorporate the latest design technology from Australia using the most up to date softwares. Simple in design but ‘comprehensive in range and dimensions, DPI range of current transformers provide the complete solutions to all switchboard monufacturers requirements, The DPI range of CIs incorporates 3 basic type of design/finishing - encased, resin encapsulated and tape wound for both measurement and protection options. Dual as well as other multiple ratios are ovailoble. CTs with special requirements including Class ’X Cl are also catered for and DPI design specialist are able to offer extensive assistance DPI current transformers are designed and manufactured to comply with the latest International Standards including BS7626:1993, BS3938:1982, IEC185:1987 and AS1675:1986. Other Features include: '* Flexible range of Dimensions to cover all busbar sizes Core made from High Grade Grain Oriented Silicon Steel for optimum performance Easy Termination on secondary terminals 1A or 5A Secondary Currents Range of Primary Currents up to 60004 Dual Ratio available for all type & range Other Multiple Ratios available on request Various Mounting Arrangement availoble Full Routine Tesied — test results available on request. SECONDARY VOLTAGE ——————> Application of DPI Current Transformers Measurement type CTs are required to transform the primary current at various classes of accuracy, as specified by the class designation, overa current range from 5% to 125% ofits rated primary current, The design of this type of transformer requires the inclusion of a core and winding which when connected to its rated burden, will perform within the limits of errors specified by the various International Standards. It is an advantage for c Measurement type CT to saturate above: this range of primary currents to provide protection against damage to instruments by limiting the secondary current when surge currents or faults appear in the primary circuit Protection type CTs are required fo transform the primary current to a secondary current up to a specified Accuracy limit Factor according to the particular classification as set out in the various International Standards specifications. A protection CT is thus required to supply the transformed primary current to the external burden without saturating, even in the presence of large line faults. Typically a protection CT is able to deliver 20 times its rated current (ie. accuracy limit factor of 20 ) before beginning to saturate, within limits of the composite errors. Because of this wide ‘operating range, protection CTs tend to have larger cross sections and heavier cores in comparison to the measurement CTs. For space and economic reasons, ‘one should avoid over specifying protection CTs. It is always absolutely critical that the protection Cis installed, ‘are able to withstand the fault currents otherwise the CTs may be damaged during a foult occurrence and the performance of he protection relays compromised DPI protection Cls are designed taking this into consideration, Certain applications may require Measurement type. CTs with extended performance range (1% to 125%) and Protection CTs complying with cerlain parameters {exciting current, knee point voltage) e.g. Class ‘x’ CT. A\ll these type of CTs are available from DPI on request.
