Sources and Transformer Configuration

Note CT polarities in Typical Wiring Diagram and connections to G30. These are
necessary to correctly meter forward power. The transformer phase shift setting must
compensate the measured relay currents for both the actual phase shift of the
transformer, and any phase due to the CT polarities and connections.
