Siemens APT current transformers – factors influencing the error of current transformers
(1) The influence of the internal resistance R2 and leakage impedance X2 of the secondary coil on the error: when R2 increases, the specific difference and angular difference increase; As X2 increases, the specific difference increases, but the angular difference decreases. Therefore, to improve the error, R2 and the appropriate X2 value should be minimized. Due to the secondary coil internal resistance R2 and leakage ...

What are the main problems with Siemens APT Relays – Solid State Relays?
When the solid state relay is open and there is voltage at the load end, there will be a certain leakage current at the output end, and care should be taken to prevent electric shock when using or designing. When the solid-state relay fails to be replaced, the original model or the product with the same technical parameters should be selected as far as possible, so as to match the original application line and ensure that the system ...

Siemens APT current transformer - working principle and characteristics of current transformer
How a current transformer works
The principle of current transformer is based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. A current transformer is composed of a closed core and windings. It has a small number of turns on the primary side winding, stringed in the line where the current needs to be measured, so it often has the full current of the line ...

Siemens APT current transformer – the difference between the ratio on a current transformer and the ratio on a watt-hour meter
1. Differences in use
The conversion ratio of the current transformer is inconsistent with the transformation ratio of the ammeter, which will lead to the inability to use the displayed value of the ammeter directly, and the proportional conversion must be carried out;
If the transformer of ratio 5 is used on the meter of ratio 1, the secondary current of CT will generally exceed 1A, so that the transformer of 5 is used on a meter of 1 ratio. Than 1 ...

Siemens APT Relays – The difference between AC relays and DC relays
1. Structural characteristics of AC relays
The coil of the AC relay is shorter, and the wire diameter is thicker, mainly because the coil is passed through the alternating current, the reactance is larger, and the thick wire diameter can reduce the internal resistance and reduce the heat generation.

Siemens APT Relays – The difference between solid state relays and intermediate relays
First, the solid-state relay has no contacts and coils in the structure, which can be opened and closed at a high frequency and will not produce sparks, and has a long service life;
Second, the intermediate relay is generally only used for the control loop, and cannot work with load, and will make a "pop" sound when it is sucked in;

Siemens APT current transformers – measures to reduce errors
The excitation current is the main cause of the error of the current transformer, so reducing the excitation current can reduce the error
(1) The core is made of materials with high permeability, because the magnetic properties of the core not only affect the ratio difference and angular difference, but also affect the saturation multiple.
(2) Increase the cross-section of the iron core and shorten the magnetic circuit.
