Split Core Current Transformer

Application:

Incorporated into products used for electric power measurement, electric power quality monitoring, Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA), protective relays. The CT is used where it is desirable for a stand alone mounting in close proximity to the primary current signal to be monitored. The CT can be installed without disconnecting the primary current loop.

Features:

• Incorporates high performance electromagnetic cores; Nickel Alloy and Silicon Steel available.
• Characterized by high sensitivity, accuracy, linearity.
• Three(3) standard sizes.
• 19.1mm (0.75") x 19.1mm (0.75")
• 31.8mm (1.25") x 31.8mm (1.25")
• 50.8mm (2.00") x 50.8mm (2.00")
• Split core design permits safer and easier installation without disconnection of the primary current circuit.

Specifications:

• Input Frequency: 50/60HZ
• Accuracy: ±1% from 10% to 130% of rated current
• Phase Angle: less than 2 degrees at 50% of rated current
• Insulation Voltage 500 Vac
• Maximum Primary Voltage 5,000Vac (insulated conductor)
• Operating temperature: -15ºC to +60ºC
• Case epoxy encapsulated housing.
