The purpose of the Potential Transformer is to provide an isolated secondary voltage that is in-phase and exact proportionate value of primary voltage.
Why PT/VT Secondary Terminal should not be Shorted?
Due to low voltage regulation, the secondary terminal voltage will remain constant and hence if we keep the PT terminals open, nothing is going to happen as the secondary voltage is low
