Current transformers
Applications
Current transformers are used when currents cannot be directly measured. They are a special form of transformers which transform the primary current into a (mostly) smaller secondary current and galvanically separate the primary and secondary circuits from each other. Due to the physically determined saturation aspect of the core material, additional protection against high currents in the secondary circuit is achieved.
Technical data
