Abstract
DC magnetic flux bias imposed on a magnetic core of a current transformer is compensated in response to an indication of the amplitude and duration of opposite polarity secondary winding current components. In a second embodiment, the magnetic bias is compensated by responding to the integral of the secondary current. The integral of the secondary current is a measure of the magnetic core flux variations. The durations of the positive and negative flux variations are compared.
