How the DC Current is Calculated ?
When HV CTs are used: IA, IB, IC are measured By using properties of
excitation transformer re-calculate Ia, Ib, Ic first
Then use formulas to the right
When LV CTs are used: Ia, Ib, Ic are measured Calculate instantaneous
DC current by using the following formula:
Calculate equivalent RMS value of the DC current by using the following formula:

Conclusion
Patented DC current measurement in the numerical IED will improve the synchronous generator protection and monitoring.
Current based protection for the rotor winding can be done in an easy way (e.g. thermal overload).
Possible to record and monitor the rotor winding DC current together with Stator U and I in the same COMTRADE file!

Practical Advise
When more than one power source is used for the excitation equipment supply, use the CT located just in front of the six-pulse rectifier bridge in order to measure DC current under all operating conditions of the machine
