Current Clamp Assembly parts diagram. Numbers match the table below; each box is one top-level part or assembly with what it contains.
#PartQtyWhat it does
1 Split-Core Toroid 2× Split ferrite or silicon-steel toroid, clipping around service line without disconnection
2 Secondary Winding 2× Secondary winding (hundreds of turns) stepped down from 100–200 A primary to 5 mA at full scale
3 Burden Resistor 1× 1 kΩ precision burden resistor converting 5 mA secondary to 5 V signal
4 Clamp Housing 1× Molded plastic clamping mechanism with spring-loaded jaws, rated IP54 for utility enclosure (weather exposure)
5 Shielded CT Cable 2× Shielded two-conductor cable from each CT clamp to measurement unit, 25–50 feet length typical
