SCT013-50-1

Current Sense Transformers Overview

The PowerUC Electronics SCT013-50-1 is a split core current transformer designed for AC current measurement. It features a 50A primary input rating with a 1V output signal and a 1% accuracy tolerance. The device operates within a frequency range of 50Hz to 1kHz. Its split core design allows for non-invasive installation around conductors without disconnecting the circuit.

Current Sense Transformers Feature Summary

• Split core construction enables easy clamping onto existing wires
• Provides isolated AC current sensing capability
• Delivers proportional voltage output for signal processing

Current Sense Transformers Applications

• Energy monitoring systems
• Smart metering applications
• Current protection circuits

Current Sense Transformers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific output configuration against project requirements, as the model designation indicates a 1V output variant. Confirm that the 50A rating aligns with the maximum expected load current in the target application. Ensure the operating frequency falls within the specified 50Hz to 1kHz range for accurate performance.

Current Sense Transformers Selection Notes

Select this component when a non-invasive current sensing solution is required for AC lines up to 50A. The 1V output simplifies interfacing with analog-to-digital converters or microcontroller ADC pins compared to current-output transformers. Consider the physical opening size constraints relative to the conductor diameter during mechanical integration.
