When using a 20:1 CT:
I created a current-loop on the secondary side (step-down side) with a resistive value along with respective voltage. The goal was to create a current-loop on the primary side (through CT opening) with a constant current value. Additionally, on the primary side "loop", I also put a resistor in series which also generated a specific AC voltage across it.
Unfortunately, when I use the resistor on the primary side, in series with primary loop, I get weird current ratios. When I don't use resistor and just short primary loop (Just insulated wire), the ratios make sense.
Why when I use resistor on primary, I get a weird ratio/current?
