Explanation of Solution

The differences in the connection between the primary winding of the voltage transformer and primary winding of the current transformer are as mentioned below:

Primary winding of voltage transformerPrimary winding of current transformer
The primary winding of the voltage transformer has large number of turns.The primary winding of the current transformer has less number of turns.
The primary winding of the voltage transformer carries the voltage which is to be measured.The primary winding of the voltage transformer carries the current which is to be measured.
