72.5kV Inductive Voltage Transformer (IVT), also known as a Potential Transformer (PT) or Voltage Transformer (VT), is a high-voltage instrument transformer designed to accurately reduce system voltages up to 72.5 kV to standardized low-voltage values for metering, protection, monitoring, and control. It provides electrical isolation between the high-voltage power network and secondary equipment, ensuring both measurement accuracy and operator safety.
