Conclusions
A standard two-stage current transformer at a frequency of 50 Hz when operating with domestic differential-null comparison instrument is not less accurate than three-winding magnetic current comparators and is superior to them in its speed of measurement and portability. For a simple and economic modernization of the standard measuring facilities employed in the USSR to check commercial-frequency current transformers the three-winding magnetic current comparators and uncompensated transformers should be replaced by standard two-stage current transformers.
