Current Clamp Assembly
AssemblyPair of split-core toroidal current transformers clamping around main service line (100–200 A capacity), producing proportional 0–5 V secondary signals. A full specification article for this item is being written. Meanwhile its bill of materials and connections are below.
Current Clamp Assembly parts and their functions
5 top-level parts · 8 parts in total · full bill of materials below| # | Part | Qty | What 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 |
