Current transformer DIN 50/5 cable diameter 21mm METSECT5CC005

Current transformer for precise measurement

This current transformer, designed for DIN rail mounting, is a key component in measurement and protection systems. It enables safe and accurate measurement of current in electrical circuits by converting high primary current values into lower, easier-to-measure secondary values. The METSECT5CC005 model from Schneider Electric is particularly useful in industrial and residential applications where reliability and measurement accuracy are required.

Construction and application

A cable-through transformer with a diameter of 21 mm allows for convenient and safe connection to existing installations without the need to interrupt the circuit. Its construction provides optimal insulation and protection against external conditions. Thanks to the accuracy class 1, it guarantees reliable measurement results, which is important for the proper operation of energy monitoring and control systems. The transformer is used in energy consumption monitoring systems, overcurrent protection, and electric motor control circuits. Screw connection of the secondary circuit ensures a stable and secure electrical connection.
