Abstract

In order to realize the wide frequency applicability of the electromagnetic current transformer in a ‘double high’ power system, the equivalent circuit model of the electromagnetic current transformer under wide frequency is established. The complex permeability method is used to obtain the excitation impedance value on the basis of the existing core parameters. Secondly, according to the equivalent circuit of the current transformer in the broadband domain, the error transfer function of the electromagnetic current transformer is derived. Through simulation calculation, the ratio difference and angle difference in the electromagnetic current transformer at 50 Hz–3000 Hz are obtained. The correctness of the theoretical analysis and simulation model is verified by comparing it with the existing model and measurement. The simulation and test results show that the electromagnetic current transformer has good linearity when the frequency is in the frequency range of 50 to 650 Hz. When the frequency exceeds this frequency, the ratio difference and angle difference in the current transformer will not reach the accuracy standard, which indicates that it is difficult to accurately measure the high frequency current. Aiming at the correlation of frequency characteristics, this paper proposes a method of optimizing parameters, which provides a certain reference for the error compensation and structural design of electromagnetic current transformers.
