CT60A

Overview

The Hammond Manufacturing CT60A is an industrial toroidal current transformer designed for chassis mounting. It features a primary current rating of 60 A and a secondary current rating of 5 A, providing a turns ratio of 60:5. The device has a power rating of 1 VA and supports a maximum primary voltage of 600 V. It utilizes wire leads for termination and measures 4.75 inches in height, 4.25 inches in length, and 1.75 inches in width.

Feature Summary

• Toroidal core construction for efficient magnetic coupling
• Chassis mount design for secure panel installation
• Wire lead termination for direct circuit connection

Applications

• Industrial electrical metering systems
• Current monitoring in control panels
• Power distribution equipment instrumentation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version to confirm compliance with current safety standards and environmental regulations. Ensure that the required burden resistance matches the 1 VA rating to maintain accuracy. Confirm mechanical dimensions fit the intended chassis space before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a 60:5 ratio is required for low-current industrial applications. Compare the 1 VA power rating against connected instrument loads to ensure adequate capacity. Consider the chassis mount style and wire lead configuration for compatibility with existing panel layouts and wiring harnesses.

Part Context

This component belongs to the CT series of industrial current transformers manufactured by Hammond Manufacturing. The series provides various ratios for different current levels while maintaining consistent toroidal geometry and chassis mounting characteristics for standardized integration into electrical enclosures.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official Hammond Manufacturing documentation for verified substitute part numbers within the CT series or alternative manufacturers offering identical 60:5 ratios and 1 VA ratings.
