GCT Open Type Current Transformer

Description

The GCT open type current transformer uses a split-core clamp-on design for current measurement and power monitoring applications. It can be installed around existing insulated cables without disconnecting the primary conductor, making it suitable for distribution panels and smart energy monitoring systems.

Key Features

  • Clamp-on split-core design for easier installation.
  • Compact size with a wide measuring range.
  • Suitable for installation in distribution panels.
  • Good output linearity across the listed current ranges.
  • Direct interface design.
  • Overvoltage protection with zener diode.
  • Shell flame rating: UL 94V-0.

Applications

  • Current measurement and monitoring.
  • Power consumption monitoring.
  • Home energy management systems.
  • Building energy management systems.
  • Power monitoring systems for distribution equipment.
