    CT Ratio Conversion Calculator

    Use the CT Ratio Calculator to determine the Current Transformer (CT) ratio. Enter primary and secondary current values to calculate the CT ratio for electrical systems. The Current Transformer Ratio Calculator serves as a measurement device to establish CT ratios within electrical systems to make primary current measurement possible at secondary levels for precise probing and safety reasons. The CT ratio calculation process requires division of primary current by secondary current using the CT Ratio = Primary Current / Secondary Current formula. The CT ratio obtains values of 200:1 from dividing 1000A primary current by 5 A secondary current. The power system relies on this ratio to understand how current transformers perform their operations for metering and protection as well as system monitoring applications. The CT Ratio Calculator aids in the execution of transformer sizing calculations as well as the efficient operation of electrical systems and their relays and measurement equipment.

    What do you need to know to calculate Current Transformer Ratio?

    The current transformer ratio calculator serves to establish the necessary CT ratio for electrical systems when measuring currents in order to perform protection and metering tasks. The CT ratio establishes the relationship between primary current transformation to obtain a measurable secondary current used in protection relay setup. The basic formula to find the CT ratio requires division of primary current by secondary current.

    The CT ratio becomes 200:1 when the primary current runs at 1000A while the secondary current measures at 5A. The fundamental calculation for electrical engineering helps to maintain the correct operation of current transformers used in power systems. Users can streamline essential electrical system operation through the CT Ratio Calculator, which performs this essential calculation regardless of working on system design, protection relays, or maintenance responsibilities.

    Conversion using the Current Transformer Ratio Calculation Formula

    The CT Ratio (Current Transformer Ratio) formula is:

    CT Ratio = Primary CurrentSecondary Current

      Where:

    • Primary Current (I₁) = is the current flowing on the high-current side (primary side) of the transformer.
    • Secondary Current (I₂) = is the current on the low-current side (secondary side) of the transformer.
