Which of the following sets of statements about the causes of errors in current transformers is correct? i) Leakage reactance in secondary winding contributes to ratio error ii) High magnetizing current increases phase angle error iii) Burden with low power factor increases phase angle error iv) Core saturation reduces both ratio and phase angle errors
(i), (ii) and (iii) only
Evaluating statements about errors in Current Transformers:
- (i) TRUE — Leakage reactance in secondary winding causes ratio error (affects the magnitude of current ratio).
- (ii) TRUE — High magnetizing current increases phase angle error (magnetizing current is 90° out of phase).
- (iii) TRUE — Low power factor burden increases phase angle error.
- (iv) FALSE — Core saturation increases both ratio error and phase angle error; it does NOT reduce them.
Correct: (i), (ii), and (iii) only.
