Error Analysis for Metering Current Transformer with DC Bias

Abstract

DC bias widely exists in power system. In order to analyze its influence on metering current transformer (MCT), a new digital simulation model based on Preisach theory is constructed firstly. Using this digital model, the ratio error and angle error of a running MCT are calculated under different levels of DC bias. Simulation results show that the current DC bias in power system has only little influence on the error of MCT.
