    Metrosils are non-linear resistors used with high impedance relays to limit current transformer secondary voltages during faults. The appropriate Metrosil depends on the relay setting voltage and maximum secondary fault current. Single disc Metrosils are suitable for currents up to 50A rms, with multiple disc Metrosils used for larger currents. Tables 1-4 provide identification and specifications for Metrosils used with 1A and 5A current transformers.

    METROSILS FOR HIGH IMPEDANCE RELAYS

    In some applications of high impedance relays a non-linear Metrosil resistor is required to limit the current transformer secondary voltage to a safe level during maximum internal fault condition. The Metrosil chosen depends on the relay setting voltage and the maximum secondary internal fault current. Relays attached to Current Transformers with 1A rated Secondary Output. Single disc Metrosils are suitable for secondary internal fault currents up to 50A rms. For larger fault currents refer to Metrosils for relays on 5A CTs.
