1 - Full form of HT 11/33 KV PT:


HT: High Tension - 11 KV or 33 KV power supply .
PT: potential Transformer - It is used for converting high voltage into 110V low voltage for measuring the high voltage.


2 - What is the HT PT? :

A potential or voltage transformer is used for measuring the high voltage of the HT line or HT panel. It is called an instrument transformer. It converts high voltage (11, 33 KV) - into low voltage (110 Volt). These 110 voltages can be measured by voltmeter and they can be used easily in protection relay and another control circuit.


3 - Types of PT-Potential Transformer?:

According to application and range of voltage, the PT can be classified into different types:

  • HT PT. It is designed as per voltage.

    • Indoor Type: Indoor type PT is used in HT panels inside substations or industries which is used in 11 KV or 33 KV high voltage. It is made of an epoxy cast resin material. It is known as a dry type potential Transformer.

    • Diagram of indoor type potential transformer(PT) and technical parameters
    • Outdoor Type: it is used in a substation open above area 33 KV for transmission and distribution.

    • Diagram of outdoor type potential 
            transformer(PT) and technical parameters.

4 - HT PT-Potential Transformer Connection Diagram:


 potential transformer(PT) connection, wiring diagram and technical parameters.

4 - Working Principle of HT PT-Potential transformer. :


It works as a normal transformer. it depends on the base of electromagnetic induction. It is a static electrical device.it converts the high voltage into a low voltage at the same frequency.

The primary winding of CT is connected to the input HT supply 11KV or 33 KV than alternating flux generated into laminated core according to Faradays law due to flux, induced emf will generate on secondary.

5 - Technical Parameters of PT:

Sr.No. Parameters Value
1 Primary Voltage (V) 11 KV to 36 kV
2 Insulation Rating (kV) Up to 36/70/170 KV
3 PT Accuracy Ratings .1,.2,.5, 1, 3, 5
4 Secondary Voltage (V) 110V/RT3, 110V/3
5 Class of Insulation Class A
6 Type of Earthing E-N
7 Rated Burden (VA) Up to 500VA

6 - What is the use of PT in HT Panel?:

The HT PT is used for voltage transformation high voltage into low voltage as above 11KV into 110V. If we want to measure high voltage above 11KV,33KV,66KV etc but we will have to required low voltage as 110 for voltmeter or multifunction meter so that voltage could be measure. so we will have to convert high voltage to low voltage as 100V Through HT PT-Potential Transformer.
