This is the SCT-013-000, a 100A non-invasive AC current sensor of the split-core type, also known as a clamp meter sensor. Here are its key features and benefits:
- High Current Capacity: It can measure AC current up to 100 amperes.
- Non-Invasive: As a split-core current transformer (CT), it allows for easy, safe installation without the need to cut or disconnect wires.
- Simple Installation: You can clip the SCT-013-000 directly onto either the live or neutral wire entering a building, eliminating the need for high voltage electrical work.
- Current Transformer Design:
- Primary Winding: The primary winding is either the live or neutral wire (but not both) passing through the hole in the CT.
- Magnetic Core: The core is made from magnetic material that concentrates the magnetic field created by the current flowing through the primary winding.
- Secondary Winding: The secondary winding, located within the transformer’s casing, consists of many turns of fine wire that generate a proportional low-voltage signal based on the current passing through the primary winding.
- Applications: The SCT-013-000 is
particularly useful for:
- Whole Building Electricity Consumption Monitoring: Ideal for measuring the total electricity usage or generation of a building.
By integrating the SCT-013-000 into your system, you can accurately monitor AC currents in a safe and non-invasive manner, making it a versatile tool for both professional and DIY electrical monitoring applications.
