1.2.4 Capacitive Voltage Transformer:

It is simple potential divider, and the most economical solution,

It is simple potential divider circuit, but problem disturbance in output voltage when we connect burden / load on tapping point.

V = IX c 1 since X c = 2 ∗ pi ∗ f ∗ c

In parallel

= Z c1 +( 1 Z b

+ 1

Z c2

)

Z c2

V b =( V s)() Z c2 + Z b

Due to Z b output voltage can be disturbed, to compensate that we employ reactance in series with burden and connect it in between tapping point and burden.
