Wound primary current transformers

Wound primary current transformers have their own primary winding with terminals: the current to be measured flows through the winding instead of through a window. This allows small primary currents from 1 A to 40 A to be measured accurately – as WALO for metering and as calibrated WALO-E for billing.

Frequently asked questions

What is a wound primary current transformer?

A current transformer with its own primary winding and primary terminals. The measured current flows through this winding, so the transformer measures even small currents from 1 A accurately.

Is there a calibrated version?

Yes, the WALO-E is conformity-assessed (class 0.5, secondary 1 A or 5 A) and suitable for billing to third parties.
