    The document discusses a magneto-optical current transformer (MOCT) that uses the Faraday effect to measure electric current. It provides a block diagram of the MOCT and lists its components as a polarizer, magneto-optical material, analyzer and photodiodes. Some advantages of the MOCT are that it has no risk of fire or explosion, does not require metallic wires, and has high immunity to electromagnetic interference. However, its accuracy can be somewhat less than a conventional transformer due to temperature drift effects.

    CONCLUSION

    CT CONSTRUCTION:

    CURRENT TRANSFORMER:

    Inductive type transformer with core and primary & secondary windings.

    CT WORKING PRINCIPAL:
    Step up transformer (voltage), step down transformers (current).

    It feeds the current coils of indicating ,metering instruments and


    protective relays. Watch over the currents in the circuit.

    PURPOSE OF CT

    DISADVANTAGES OF CT:
    The insulation structure has to be designed carefully to avoid
    electric field stress, which could eventually cause insulation breakdown. Less reliability

    MOCT Measures the electric current by means of FARADAY EFFECT.

    FARADAY EFFECT: Michael Faraday discovered that the orientation of linearly polarized light was rotated under the influence of the magnetic field when the light propagated in a piece of glass, and the rotation angle was proportional to the intensity of the magnetic field.

    Polarization is a property of certain types of waves that describes the orientation of their oscillations.

    FARADAY EFFECT

    By considering the property faraday given two mathematical equations

    ANGLE=V (INTEGRAL OF B)-------------(1) ANGLE=n*permeability*VI -------------(2)

    POLARIZER MAGNETO-OPTICAL MATERIAL ANALYZER (POLARIZATION PRISM) PHOTODIODES

    MOCT DESIGN

    BLOCK DIAGRAM OF MOCT

    The MOCT is designed to operate in a transparent manner with modern electronic meters and digital relays, which have been adopted for a low energy analog signal interface. Typically, the design approach is to redefine the interface point as to input the analog to digital conversion function used by each of these measurement systems.

    No risk of fires and explosions. No need to use metallic wires to transfer the signal. High immunity to electromagnetic interference. Larger dynamic range. Low voltage outputs which are compatible with the inputs of digital to analog converters.

    Due to Temperature and stress induced linear changes in the sensing material causes error and instability. The accuracy of MOCT is some what less than the conventional transformer. Main cause is temperature drift, but the disadvantages can be overcome by implementing the Double closed-loop self-tuning method

    This paper presents a new kind of current transducer known as magneto optical current transducer. This MOCT eliminates many of the drawbacks of the conventional current transformers. By applying Faradays principle this transducer provides an easier and more accurate way of current measurement. This MOCT is widely used in power systems and substations nowadays.
