3. OPERATION AND TROUBLE SHOOTING
3.1 Metering Rules
1.
Current Transformers (CTs) are directional.
2.
Voltage references must be in phase with the load being metered and from the same source.
Rule #1:
If the CTs are mounted in the opposite direction, the polarity of the CT will be opposite.
The arrow on the CT indicates the direction from LINE to LOAD.
Similarly, the
“H1”
is on the LINE SIDE.
All Intellimeter milli-Amp current transformers 100:0.8A, 200:0.1A, 400:0.1A and 600:0.1A have
self-shorting protection built into the device. They can safely be open circuited while under load.
