    Intermittent fault in induction motor

    If the primary currents of a current transformer is fixed, how can it generate spikes on its secondary which are 3-4 times full load current. Won't it violate equations of transformer action?. Any chance of noise is also ruled out becuase spikes are being produced consistently in only two phases...

    Reduction in tan Delta as well as insulation resistance

    For a current transformer, what it means if both insulation resistance and tan Delta are being reduced over a period. e.g. tan Delta reduced by 40% while insulation resistance reduced by 10 times

    Intermittent fault in induction motor

    All tests done for motor and CT and found healthy. There is no drop in voltage during these current spikes.

    Intermittent fault in induction motor

    The red plots show current spikes by only Y and B phase CTs (neutral side). Rest CTs show nearly same currents as previous.https://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=457bd658-7cea-4f7a-bfc6-9ca50ab23849&file=IMG_0028.jpeg

    Intermittent fault in induction motor

    There are CTs mounted at its neutral side also and phase side also. Only neutral CTs are showing short pulse of high currents. Phase side there is a marginal increase.

    Intermittent fault in induction motor

    I have one HV 3 phase star ungrounded induction motor. Sometimes there is a short duration of 5 milliseconds high magnitude currents recorded at its neutral side. The frequency of occurrence is random, sometimes even few days. How can a fault be of such type? Please suggest.
