ABSTRACT:
A method of supervising the operation of a plurality of current transformers arranged in respective groups and connected to a protection relay forming part of a three-phase electrical power system includes determining a current ratio at an output of each group of current transformers, comparing each current ratio with a predetermined high ratio, comparing each current ratio with a predetermined low ratio, and generating a fault indication when the current ratio at one location exceeds the predetermined high ratio and the current ratio at the or each other location remains below the predetermined low ratio.
