The number of CTs per phases will depend on the protection design for that particular circuit breaker, as well as whether busbar protection is required for the board. It will also depend on the company policy for sharing CTs.

yes if you use a combined overcurrent and earth fault protection relay it normal practice.

As I said, it depends on the protection design and operating company policy. It would also be possible by altering the connections to the relay to achieve the same arrangement using only the three phase CTs and not use a separate one for earth. You need to ensure that you order the correct specification CTs for your protection application. It would be possible (but most companys would think unwise) to use the same CTs for backup overcurrent / earth fault as well as a high speed protection scheme such as unit and / or accelerated distance as well.
Regrads, Alan. |

We utilise both types of setup on our protection systems.
Generally our HV transformer feeders utilise the phase CTs for earth protection. Our HV incomers and LV incomers generally have seperate CTs for phase and earth protection circuits and a further CT for restricted earth fault protection for transformer secondaries. Kind regards Donald Lane |

In terms of the greatest number of phase CTs, I think we have got to five sets of CTs. For a transmission feeder, these would be:
1. First Main Protection (Usually a unit scheme) 2. Second Main Protection (Usually an accelerated distance scheme) 3. Overcurrent / Earth Fault / Sensitive Earth Fault 4. Busbar Protection Zone (a high-impedance scheme) 5. Busbar Protection Check Zone (a high-impedance scheme) Regards, Alan. |
