Ferroresonance in capacitive voltage transformer (CVT) due to breaker opening / Shakil Ahamed Khan
Ferroresonance incidences in electrical power system have been commonly regarded as unexplained phenomenon due to its relatively rare frequency of occurrence which is not critical by the utility engineers. As a result, research conducted in this area is limited and the awareness on ferroresonance is...

Ferroresonance incidences in electrical power system have been commonly regarded as unexplained phenomenon due to its relatively rare frequency of occurrence which is not critical by the utility engineers.
