Current Transformers: Types and Uses by Jay Ranvir is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Current transformers (CTs) are used to measure alternating current. They produce a secondary current proportional to the primary current while isolating measurement circuits from high voltages. CTs scale large currents to smaller, standardized values for instruments and relays. They are used extensively in power generation, transmission, and distribution systems to monitor operations and protect equipment. Technical standards ensure the safe operation of CTs, which can produce hazardous voltages if misused
