The characteristics and use occasions of open current transformer

　　 As my country and various enterprises pay attention to energy management, government buildings, enterprise factories, office buildings, etc. that have been built in various places have begun to install and install energy management systems. Power consumption occupies a large proportion of all energy consumption, so power consumption monitoring plays an important role in energy management.

　　 Electricity consumption monitoring is generally used in cooperation with electric energy meters and transformers. In the renovation project, it is recommended to use rail-type electric energy meters for the convenience of equipment, while current transformers are preferably considered to use open current transformers.

The open current transformer is mainly used in the transformation projects of the urban and rural power grids in the industry. The equipment is convenient, and there is no need to dismantle the busbar once, and it can also be operated with electricity. It does not affect the customer’s normal electricity consumption. It saves manpower, material and financial resources for the user’s transformation project and improves efficiency . This series of current transformers can be used in conjunction with relay maintenance, measurement and metering equipment.

  Precautions:

　　 1. Before opening the current transformer equipment, connect its secondary to the electric meter (or other measuring equipment) to ensure that the secondary transformer is not open;

　　 2. Put all the open current transformers connected to the secondary line on site and wait for the equipment;

　　3. If the primary bus on site is a cable, live equipment can be carried out; if the primary bus is a copper bar, the live operation requires a relatively high level of proficiency for the operator, and insulation protection methods are required;

　　4. When equipment transformers, no foreign matter such as impurities or dust should fall into the cut surface of the iron core to avoid affecting the transformer performance.
