Split-Core CTs – What you need to know?
A current transformer works by surrounding a conductor transferring current with a magnetic core. The magnetic field of currents from the conductor induces a equivalent current in the CT’s subordinate turning. This scaled current is therefore used for calculation or monitoring. The difference with...
