Low Voltage Current Transformers
Window Type/ Split Core

Our Low Voltage Current Transformers are designed for use with watthour meters with an accuracy of class 0.3 or 0.15. It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor service. The transformer meets all applicable IEEE, ANSI, and NEMA standards. A wide variety of accessories and ratings allows for maximum versatility.
Construction
The ring-type core is wound from high-quality grain-oriented silicon steel which has
been annealed. The secondary winding is accomplished with heavy enameled copper
wire evenly distributed around the core. The assembly is then encapsulated in a mold
using a polyurethane resin specifically formulated for optimal electrical insulation and
weatherproof characteristics.
Secondary Terminals and Cover
Secondary terminals are tinned bronze compression type with a large 0.29” (7.5 mm) diameter hole. A bronze pivoting short circuit device is an integral part of the secondary terminal arrangement. The short circuit device interferes with the proper placement of the clear polycarbonate cover when the shorting
device is in the shorted position. The terminal cover is designed to accept a sealing device.
Base Plates
The transformer can be ordered without a base plate or with industry-standard base plates of marine-grade aluminum.
Primary Bar
Available as an option, the flat primary bar-kit is of tinned copper and has a two-hole or four-hole NEMA pad on either end. It is centered in the transformer window by two endplates and the terminals can be rotated, as needed, to any orientation. A potential connector is installed on the primary conductor assembly by default on the H1 side of the CT, however, the potential connector can be moved to the H2 side in the field.
High-Accuracy Options
The DCCW model is available with high-accuracy 0.15 class ratings. These ratings offer the user the ability to use fewer standard ratios, while, in most cases, improving the accuracy performance of the metering installation.
