Current Transformer 10A Sensor 1000:1

The Current Transformer (CT) 10A Sensor 1000:1 is a device used to measure high alternating current (AC) values by safely reducing them to a lower, measurable level. In this case, the CT has a primary current rating of 10 amps and a turns ratio of 1000:1, meaning it reduces the primary current by a factor of 1000.

Key Features:

• Primary Current Rating: 10 amps
• Turns Ratio: 1000:1
• Secondary Current Rating: 10 amps / 1000 = 10 mA (milliamps)
• Accuracy: Typically specified as a percentage error, indicating the accuracy of the measurement.
• Frequency Range: The range of AC frequencies the CT can accurately measure.
• Mounting Type: The method by which the CT is attached to the conductor carrying the current (e.g., clamp-on, bolt-on).

Applications:

• Power Measurement: Measuring the power consumption of electrical equipment or systems.
• Current Monitoring: Monitoring the current flow in electrical circuits.
• Overcurrent Protection: Detecting and responding to excessive current levels.
• Energy Management: Tracking and managing energy usage.
• Industrial Automation: Controlling and monitoring industrial processes.
