Definition of Sum Current Transformer

Size of a sum current transformer can be defined according table or by calculation pattern.

d = outer diameter of cable with insulation
D = inner diameter of sum current transformer

Note! Leave some space to make it easier to install cable through the hole of the transformer.

WINDOW TYPE SUM CURRENT TRANSFORMERS

Transformers are standard models or custom made models.
In custom made models give L and H measures.

Sum current transformer for busbar installation are manufactured to special order. The following measurements are required:
Length (L) and height (H).
Maximum and minimum measures of custom made bus bar transformers (window type):

Min H
2”
(50 mm)
Max H
10”
(250 mm)
Min L
2”
(50 mm)
Max L
26”
(660 mm)
