DESCRIPTION

Split-Core Current Transformer Standard and Revenue Grade Accuracy models

Excellent Linearity
Low Phase Angle Error
UL 2808 (XOBA) Listed
All CTs Are Not the Same!
Square 0.75 in. Window Opening 5A to 250 A

The patented Accu-CT split-core current transformer technology delivers exceptional linearity and low-end accuracy. Developed specifically for solar inverter, variable speed motor drive, and other applications where there are large variations in current. The 100:1 turndown ratio of Accu-CTs is ten times better than industry standard CTs. The unique one-handed opening and closing mechanism makes installation a snap.

ACTL series CTs are available in both standard and revenue-grade accuracy models. Revenue grade models ship with a serialized certificate of calibration.

  • Safe: built-in burden resistor provides 0.333 Vac voltage output at the rated full-scale current—no shorting blocks needed!
  • UL 2808 Listed meets 2017 NEC code requirements for field installed current transformers
  • IEEE C57.13 and IEC 60044-1 accuracy: over the full temperature range and down to below 1% of rated current
  • Exceptionally low phase angle error: essential for accurate power and energy measurements
  • Glove-friendly: easy to open and install with one hand while wearing safety gloves
  • Approvals: CE mark and RoHS compliant

Options

Opt C0.6

With Option C0.6, the Accu-CT meets IEEE/ANSI C57.13-2008 class 0.6 accuracy and IEC 60044-1 class 0.5 and class 0.5 S accuracy from -30°C to 55°C and from 1% to 120% of rated primary current (see CT Accuracy Standards).

  • Note: the ACT-0750-250 Opt C0.6 accuracy is only specified to 100% of full-scale primary current (other models are specified to 120%).
  • Accuracy improves to ±0.5% from 1% to 120% of rated primary current from -30°C to 55°C.
  • Phase angle improves to ±0.5 degrees from 1% to 120% of rated primary current from -30°C to 55°C.
  • Includes a certificate of calibration
    • Order option C0.6,N if you need the C0.6 accuracy, but do not need a certificate of calibration.
  • Not available for 5, 15, and 20 amp Accu-CT models.

Opt 50 Hz

Standard models are calibrated for optimum accuracy at 60 Hz. Option 50 Hz calibrates for best accuracy at 50 Hz. Option 50 Hz models have the same accuracy specifications as standard models and are also available in combination with Option C0.6 (selected rated amps) for higher accuracy.

Note: All models in Australia are supplied with the 50Hz Option

Opt FT

The Accu-CT can be ordered with custom lead lengths. For example, Opt FT=50 for 50 foot leads. We also sell extra lead wire to allow for field extension of the leads. Option FT does not affect the accuracy specifications.

Advanced Options

The Accu-CT advanced options are generally not useful when ordering the Accu-CT for use with a WattNode® meter, but may be useful for other applications.
