 Current transformers Accessories for DCT

Test certificate
On request, we can provide you with a test certificate for a specific current transformer along with the CT. Please inform us when placing your order.

Sealed shutter
On request, we can supply a transparent plastic cover. The cover seals the connections on the CT in a way that leaves the type label visible. Please
check availability on each individual data sheet.

Excitation curve
On request, we can provide you with an excitation curve for a specific current transformer along with the CT. Please inform us when placing your order.

Optional frequency
Frequency range for a standard CT is 50-60Hz. On request, we can provide you with a frequency range from 16 2/3 – 400Hz. Please inform us when
placing your order.

Cast resin
Cast resin is standard for all CT’s with a nominal current >4,000A. On request, all CT’s with a nominal current <4,000A can be produced with cast
resin. Please inform us when placing your order. The min. and max. weight specification for each type refers to standard versions. The specification is
different if cast resin is ordered for CT’s <4,000A.

Mounting
Foot angle for screw mounting and busbar mounting screws with isolating protection caps are supplied along with the CT. DIN-rail mounting for tubes,
plug-ins and protection transformers is available on request for certain CT types. Please check availability on each individual data sheet.
