nciCtAmps
Use
nciCtAmps
to specify the rated current of the attached current transformers (CTs).
To measure very low currents more accurately, you may loop the conductor being measured
through the CT more than once. In this case, the effective CT amps is divided by the number of
times the conductor passes through the CT. For example, if you pass the wire through a 30A CT
three times, the effective CT amps becomes 10A.
In other cases, you may want to use two or more CTs in parallel on each phase. If you do this, the
parallel CTs must be the same model. The effective CT amps is the rated CT amps multiplied by
the number of CTs in parallel, so two 100A CTs in parallel is equivalent to a 200A CT.
