SCT010T-80-26

Current Sense Transformers Overview

The SCT010T-80-26 is a non-invasive current sense transformer manufactured by PowerUC Electronics. It features an 80 A primary current rating and a secondary output of 26.6 mA, resulting in a turns ratio of 3000:1. The device operates within a frequency range of 50 Hz to 1 kHz and maintains a measurement accuracy of 1%. Designed for free-hanging or inline cable mounting, it provides isolated current sensing without breaking the primary circuit.

Current Sense Transformers Feature Summary

• Non-invasive split-core design allows installation around existing conductors without circuit interruption
• Provides galvanic isolation between high-voltage primary lines and low-voltage sensing circuits
• Optimized for accurate sinusoidal current measurement within the 50 Hz to 1 kHz frequency band

Current Sense Transformers Applications

• Energy metering systems requiring precise AC current measurement
• Industrial motor control drives for feedback monitoring
• Power quality analyzers and data acquisition equipment

Current Sense Transformers Procurement Notes

Verify that the target application involves alternating current (AC) signals, as this transformer does not function with direct current (DC). Confirm the primary conductor diameter fits within the split-core aperture. Ensure the burden resistor value matches the sensor's output characteristics to maintain the specified 1% accuracy across the 50 Hz to 1 kHz operating range.

Current Sense Transformers Selection Notes

Select this component when electrical isolation is required between the power line and the measurement interface. The 80 A rating suits moderate-load industrial applications. Consider the 3000:1 ratio to determine if the resulting 26.6 mA secondary current aligns with the input requirements of the connected analog-to-digital converter or signal conditioning circuitry.

Current Sense Transformers Part Context

This model belongs to the SCT010 series of current transformers, which are widely used for non-contact current monitoring. The '80' designation indicates the primary current capacity, while '26' refers to the secondary current output in milliamperes. These devices serve as critical interfaces in power management systems where safety isolation and compact inline mounting are prioritized over high-frequency response.

Current Sense Transformers Replacement Considerations

Substitute parts must match the 80 A primary rating, 3000:1 turns ratio, and 50 Hz–1 kHz bandwidth. Verify physical dimensions to ensure compatibility with existing mounting hardware and conductor clearance.
