Generally speaking, for motors above 2000kW, differential protection needs to be set, and the CT transformation ratio on both sides of the motor should be consistent. If the CT ratios on both sides are inconsistent, what should be done?
In order to reduce the impact of CT transformation ratio error, differential protection needs to set a reference transformation ratio, that is, convert the secondary current collected at each side into the actual primary current, and then convert it into the secondary current value through the reference transformation ratio.Therefore, you need to set a benchmark transformation ratio. If the transformation ratio on each side is not different, you can set it on either side. If the difference is large, you can set an intermediate transformation ratio.
