Which accuracy class do I need?

Permissible current error and phase displacement of the classes to IEC 61869-2 – including partial load, where the differences are largest.

Input values

Limits of the class 0,5

5 %± 1,5 %± 90′
20 %± 0,75 %± 45′
100 %± 0,5 %± 30′
120 %± 0,5 %± 30′

Permissible error to IEC 61869-2

Applicable reference point
100 %
Current error
± 0,5 %
Phase displacement
± 30′
Equals at the secondary output
± 25 mA

The standard only specifies limits at the listed reference points. Between two points the value of the next lower one applies. The values apply at rated burden and rated frequency.
