What is it?
• The Model 505 is a Current
Transformer and Potential
Transformer Analyzer
– It’s a small portable tester for testing CT’s and
PT’s in- or out of-service
– It provides test data to determine if the CT’s or
PT’s are bad
– It helps diagnose installation issues

What is a CT?

A Current Transformer that reduces high primary current to
5 amps for measurement by a revenue meter.

A CT is designed to make this reduction accurately when
driving the secondary current into a known burden.

If the secondary burden is exceeded, the CT’s accuracy
will be compromised.

What is BURDEN?
The total amount of resistance in Ohms and
inductance in Milli-Henries which may be
connected to the secondary without causing a
measurable error greater than specified by the
CT’s accuracy classification.

What Makes Up The Burden?
• Electricity Meter Current Coils
• Meter Socket
• Test Switch Components
• Wire Gage
• All compression connections

Installation Issues?
•Mis-Wired Installation
•Wrong Nameplate Information
•Wrong system Multipliers
•Lightning strike causes shorted windings or
magnetizes the core.
•Open Secondary causes failed insulation in CT
windings or magnetizes the core
•CT age causes Insulation Failure
•Installation age/location causes excessive Circuit
Burden

Admittance Test
•Tests CT’s in Circuit or out of Circuit (with & without Load)
•Easily checks for Open Circuits, Shorted CT’s, Bad CT
Windings – all from the Test Switch – Does not Magnetize the
CT
–Because of sensitivity of the Admittance Testing, large changes in results
will be seen on circuits with minor problems.
•Results are very repeatable and independent of load.
•Results are evaluated by comparing the results to the other CT
readings and also comparing the previous results

CT Burden Test
•A Meter Circuit Burden Test is accomplished by inserting a
know load (resistance) and comparing the Before and After
secondary current measurement. A burden tests helps determine
the capability (VA) of the CT.
•Acceptable Burden Tests require a reasonable load to be present
(50% of rating).
•Burden Test Results significantly vary based on the load and
require a knowledgeable person to interpret.

Time
•Utilizes the Burden Resistance to take the CT into
saturation and then bring it out of saturation
•To ensure the CT is properly Demagged, the CT
should be loaded to 50% or more of rating (typically
2.5 amps)

CT Ratio Test
•A Ratio Test determines the Current Ratio and Phase
Angle between the Primary and Secondary Currents on
the CT
•A Primary Current Probe is utilized for direct primary
current measurement
•Accurately Measures Actual Ratio and Phase angle
between the Primary / Secondary Service

PT Burden Test
•A PT Burden test is used to determine whether a PT
has enough VA capability to drive the attached load and
provide an accurate voltage to the measurement circuit
•To perform the test, varying Burdens (Resistance) are
applied to the PT. The Before and After Burden
Application is compared. If a change is realized, either
the PT is rated too small, significant Burden is in the
measuring circuit or too much load (relays, etc..) is
‘hung’ on the PT.

Why Test CT’s and PT’s?
• CT’s and PT’s ratio down the real power for
easy measurement and isolation
– Directly involved with billing of consumer
• High error tolerances allow for large revenue loss
– Transformers installations are gaining attention due to high
loss capabilities
– CT’s and PT’s are utilized on large consumers
• Typically 80% , or more, revenue comes from large
Consumers
