Maximum current of a current transformer based on CT rating
Maximum current of a current transformer based on CT rating
(OP)
Hello all,
How does one find the maximum current rating of a current transformer? Say the current transformer ratio is 3000:5 and it is C400 rated. I know that the CYYY rating is a measure of the CT's performance, but have no idea if I can calculate the maximum current rating of the CT with this information.
Also, is there a maximum current rating for both sides of the current transformer (primary and secondary)?
Any suggestions or readings would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the information. Both of these responses were very helpful and I have a better understanding of CT ratings now.
