Split-core current transformer for AC current measurement
The Current transformer CG Split core, 500A/5A Ø36mm is a Carlo Gavazzi split-core current transformer designed for AC current measurement in existing electrical installations. The split-core construction allows installation around an existing conductor without removing the cable, making it suitable for retrofit energy monitoring and sub-metering.
The transformer has a rated primary current of 500 A and provides a standard 5 A secondary output for connection to compatible energy meters, power analyzers and monitoring equipment.
500 A current measurement with 36 mm opening
The Ø36 mm conductor opening provides space for larger cables in distribution boards, industrial switchboards and other high-current installations. The opening core simplifies mechanical installation compared with conventional solid-core current transformers.
The current transformer is suitable for current measurement, load monitoring and energy management applications where the connected measuring equipment uses a 5 A CT input.
See the official Carlo Gavazzi current transformer documentation for detailed technical specifications and installation requirements.
