SCCT 160/80 1500/5A VA 20 CL 3 -CE

Current Sense Transformers Overview

The Selec SCCT 160/80 1500/5A VA 20 CL 3 -CE is a split-core current transformer designed for electrical energy monitoring. It features a primary rating of 1500 Amperes and a secondary output of 5 Amperes, suitable for connection to standard ammeters or power meters. The device has a window size of 160 mm by 80 mm, allowing it to accommodate large busbars or cables without disconnection. It offers a burden accuracy class of 20 VA with a precision class of 3, ensuring reliable measurement in industrial distribution panels.

Current Sense Transformers Feature Summary

• Split-core design enables installation on existing conductors without circuit interruption
• High-capacity aperture accommodates thick busbars and heavy-gauge cabling
• Provides standardized 5A secondary output for compatibility with common instrumentation

Current Sense Transformers Applications

• Industrial power distribution panel metering
• Electrical energy consumption monitoring systems
• Current measurement for three-phase AC power analysis

Current Sense Transformers Procurement Notes

Verify that the conductor dimensions fit within the 160x80 mm window before procurement. Confirm the system requires a 5A secondary output rather than 1A. Ensure the application voltage does not exceed the transformer's insulation rating. Check for CE marking compliance if operating in regulated regions. Validate that the 3% accuracy class meets the specific project requirements.

Current Sense Transformers Selection Notes

Select this model when high-current measurements up to 1500A are required without breaking the circuit. The split-core mechanism is essential for retrofitting existing installations. Choose this variant over solid-core types when maintenance access is limited. Ensure the connected load impedance remains within the 20 VA burden limit to maintain specified accuracy.

Current Sense Transformers Part Context

This component belongs to the Selec split-core current transformer series, widely used in power quality and energy management applications. It serves as a critical interface between high-voltage primary circuits and low-voltage secondary measuring devices. The product line emphasizes ease of installation and durability in harsh industrial environments.

Current Sense Transformers Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 1500/5A ratio, 160x80 mm window size, and 5A secondary output. Verify that substitute models offer comparable accuracy class and burden ratings. Ensure physical mounting mechanisms are compatible with existing panel configurations.
