Frequently asked questions

What is a plug-on current transformer?

A plug-on CT is placed on the busbar or cable; the conductor runs through its window and forms the primary winding. It is the standard design for new installations and distribution boards. For retrofits without disconnecting the conductor, choose a split-core CT. Plug-on CTs explained →

What does 3000/5 A mean?

With 3000 A in the primary conductor, the transformer delivers 5 A to the meter or measuring device – a ratio of 600:1. Meters and instruments are set to this CT ratio.

Will it fit my cable?

The window decides: the types listed here take round conductors of Ø 84–85 mm, depending on the type. The datasheet of each type gives the exact window and busbar dimensions. CT finder →

Which accuracy class?

For plug-on current transformers 3000/5 A, the classes 0.5 and 1 are available here. Billing-relevant metering requires class 0.5 or better; for display and monitoring class 1 is usually sufficient. Accuracy class comparison →
