2 Product overview
2.1 Introduction
SCTxxxx | Current transformers for power measurement
Fig.1: SCT current transformers
The SCT current transformers allow reliable power sensor technology to be implemented directly in the field
as an integral part of the PC-based control system. Users can choose between two concepts, which are
highly scalable thanks to various designs and performance classes and are thus suitable for any application.
The SCT series portfolio is extremely diversified, ranging from the low-cost 3-phase transformer sets for
properties and standard industrial transformers for mechanical engineering, through to solutions for test
benches with particularly high requirements for accuracy.
The choice of the right product category [}14] depends on the type of usage:
Whilst the data acquisition can be implemented cost-efficiently and with high measurement accuracy using
the ring-type current transformers, particularly in new systems, the split-core current transformers are
suitable as an uncomplicated retrofit solution due to the simplicity of their attachment.
The SCT5xxx transformers occupy a special position. These are not intended for energy measurement, but
are specially designed for highly accurate detection of differential currents. In addition, unlike the other SCT
transformers, they are also suitable for DC currents and thus meet the differential current detection
according to the Type B definition. Therefore, AC as well as DC currents up to 100 kHz can be measured by
a fluxgate measuring principle.

2.2 Basics current transformers
Basic information on the technology area of current transformers is given in the following. The information is
of general nature; so it is imperative to check the extent to which these notes apply to your specific
application.
Function and design
A current transformer is a transforming device that transforms an input current into a processable current
signal at the output. A current transformer is mainly used to transform currents of large magnitudes to directly
measurable, smaller values in the milliampere or small ampere range. With a classic current transformer, the
input current is proportional to the output current. Due to the physical principle and the mechanical
construction, the current signal is transmitted galvanically isolated to the evaluation electronics.
A current transformer basically consists of a small number of windings on the primary side and a larger
number of windings on the secondary side. The current to be converted flows through the primary side. The
windings are usually wound on an alternating magnetic ferrite ring core.
A typical transformer type is the ring core or ring-type current transformer. The current rail or current-carrying
cable is often used as the primary winding, which is guided through the toroidal core of the transformer.
Thus, the rail or line forms the primary winding with one turn. The secondary winding is located on the ring
core. The transformation is determined by the ratio of the number of primary and secondary windings. The
classic structure of a ring-type current transformer is shown in the following figure.
Fig.2: Principle ring-type current transformer
Another classic type is the coiled current transformer. In this type of transformer, the primary winding is a
current-carrying wire which is wound around the ring core on the primary side. In this case, the primary
winding number is >1, but smaller than the secondary winding number. The principle is shown in the
following figure

WARNING
Dangerous voltages with secondary side not connected
The secondary winding must be connected to a current measuring device or short-circuited, otherwise high
core losses or dangerous voltages may occur on the secondary side. Before replacing the measuring elec-
tronics in the secondary circuit, the current transformer must therefore be short-circuited at its secondary
terminals.
Grounding of secondary terminals
According to DIN VDE 0141 (01/2000) paragraph 5.3.4, current and voltage transformers for nomi-
nal voltages from Um=3.6kV must be grounded on the secondary side. For low voltages
(Um≤1.2kV), grounding is not required if the transformer housings do not have any metal surfaces
with large contact areas.
Characteristic values and calculation
In principle, the construction, and thus also the calculation, correspond to a normal transformer. The basic
relationship between input and output current is determined by the ratio of the number of turns N of the
primary and secondary sides. An important characteristic value in the design of a current transformer is
therefore the transformer ratio.
