SCCT 160/80 6000/5A VA 30 CL 1 -CE

Current Sense Transformers Overview

The SCCT 160/80 6000/5A VA 30 CL 1 -CE is a split-core current transformer manufactured by Selec Controls USA Inc. It features a primary rating of 6000 Amperes and a secondary output of 5 Amperes, designed for high-current industrial metering applications. The unit provides a Class 1 accuracy rating with a 30 VA burden capacity, ensuring reliable signal transmission to connected instrumentation. This model incorporates a split-core design that facilitates installation on existing busbars or cables without requiring system de-energization or disconnection. The device complies with CE standards for safety and electromagnetic compatibility within applicable regions.

Current Sense Transformers Feature Summary

• Split-core construction allows non-intrusive installation around existing conductors
• High primary current rating suitable for heavy industrial load monitoring
• Class 1 accuracy ensures precise measurement for billing and control purposes
• Integrated 30 VA burden capability supports multiple downstream instrument connections

Current Sense Transformers Applications

• Industrial power distribution panel metering
• Energy management systems in manufacturing facilities
• Electrical substation current monitoring
• Utility revenue metering infrastructure

Current Sense Transformers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific core diameter and conductor size compatibility before purchase, as split-core transformers require precise physical matching to the busbar or cable being monitored. Confirm that the required accuracy class (Class 1) meets the project's metering specifications. Ensure the 30 VA burden rating aligns with the total impedance of the connected meters or relays to prevent saturation. Check for valid CE certification documentation if deployment is within regulated jurisdictions.

Current Sense Transformers Selection Notes

Select this model when monitoring currents up to 6000 Amperes where non-invasive installation is critical. The Class 1 accuracy is appropriate for general industrial metering rather than high-precision revenue grade applications which may require higher classes. Consider the physical dimensions of the split core to ensure it fits the available space around the conductor. Evaluate the thermal environment to ensure operation within standard industrial temperature ranges.
