What is electrical measurement industry?

It is an industrial sector that includes control measurements of electrical quantities in circuits as well as measurements of other quantities in which electrical energy is used.

What is a current transformer and how does it work?

Current transformer (or C.T.) is a type of “instrument transformer” - aimed to produce an alternating current in its secondary winding which is proportional to the current being measured in its primary. They reduce high voltage currents to a much lower value, which provides a more convenient and safe way to monitor the actual electrical current flowing in an AC transmission line using a standard ammeter.

In the case of control measurements of electrical quantities in the circuits, the meters of such quantities such as voltage, intensity, resistance or power are directly connected to the circuit. For measurements of other quantities, a meter measuring, for example, a quantity such as temperature or number of revolutions must be provided with a transducer so that the measured quantity can be represented by means of appropriate units.

We distinguish three main types of current transformers: wound, toroidal and bar.

Current transformer – where to use?

- For proportional change of high voltage to the lower one.
- Used together with ammeters to provide a maximum secondary current corresponding to a full-scale deflection on the ammeter.
- Evaluation by using measuring devices with a narrow scale.
- They allow positioning the devices in a far distance from the controlled circuit.
