XGIS current transformers are installed in the factory prior to
shipment but may be removed or changed in the field after the
vertical sections have been aligned and attached.
The CTs are held in place by brackets attached to the vertical section
surfaces. The hardware to be applied on the CTs will vary depending
on the CT type, rating, applicable standards, quantity and location.
The brackets to be applied and the mounting hardware to be used
are specified on the project installation drawings.
5.13.1 Main bus compartment CTs
Main bus CTs are mounted on top of the tank, using brackets
designed for the purpose. There are a variety of main bus CT bracket
designs, depending on which CTs are to be installed.
In every case, the CTs will be installed on the tank top before the
SSIS bus and bus joints are installed.
