The present disclosure pertains to systems and methods for monitoring a capacitance-coupled voltage transformer (CCVT) in electrical communication with the electric power delivery system, the CCVT comprising a stack of capacitors and an electrical contact to a first ground connection. A first current transformer is disposed between the stack of capacitors and the first ground connection. The current transformer provides an electrical signal corresponding to a current associated with the CCVT. A second transformer is disposed to provide a second electrical signal related to the CCVT. The second signal may be a voltage signal or a current signal. An intelligent electronic device (IED) in electrical communication with the current measurement devices monitors a health factor comprising a ratio of magnitudes or a difference between phases from the transformers at a single frequency. The health factor is compared against an acceptable range and an alarm is generated when the range is exceeded.

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of potential transformer (PT) ferromagnetic resonance elimination, in particular to a PT ferromagnetic resonance elimination method implemented by actively inputting resistance through an electronic load, including the following steps: setting up a PT, and determining a mapping relationship; constructing a resonance elimination control system; and designing the electronic load as an active resonance elimination device. The present disclosure overcomes a contradiction between a magnitude of resonance elimination resistance and winding overload in a PT open delta during single-phase-to-earth fault and fault clearance, and effectively avoids the technical problems of difficult distinguishing between single-phase-to-earth fault characteristics and power frequency resonance characteristics and causing resonance in a single-phase-to-earth fault process. Compared with previous disclosure designs, the present disclosure directly measures parameters, and is simple in algorithm, low in computational complexity, rapid in arithmetic speed, high in precision and less in error.
