Abstract: In this review article, ideas for the development of measuring methods and setups to test inductive instrument transformer accuracy for the transformation of distorted current or voltage are analyzed. This article proposes limiting values for ratio error and phase displacement at harmonics. Moreover, the manuscript discusses some remarks about the required test waveform of voltage and current, as well as the operating conditions of the inductive instrument transformer during the test. This includes designation of the number of harmonics, their RMS values and phase angles in relation to the fundamental component, as well as the required load of the VT’s and CT’s secondary winding. The aim of this work is also to show the common requirements and principles of developed methods and measuring setups to justify the proposed solution.
