In this thesis, the correction factors have been estimated to work up the current transformer performance and accuracy. Throughout this project, the current transformer 15/1A and 7.5/1A are tested with different percentages of total harmonic distortion. The first part of testing is done with software simulation using PSCAD when current transformer modeled with different burden. The PSCAD simulation is compared in terms of primary and secondary current, harmonic current, current transformer ratio and burden. Different percentage of total harmonic distortion current is supplied to test the current transformer performance by using PSCAD software. PSCAD also simulate to see the current transformer saturation when operates with different values of magnetizing impedance.

The second part is the hardware comparison between the linear and non-linear loads used in current transformers.

From the overall experiment of software and hardware, results shows that different percentage of harmonics bring effects to the current transformer in terms of efficiency, phase angle error and ratio error. The effect also counted on the values of secondary burden. The harmonic effects on the current transformer tested presence until the current transformer saturate.
