XUCKY Current Transformer (CT) and Voltage Transformer (VT or PT) are essential components in electrical power systems, serving critical roles in measurement, protection, and control applications.
Current Transformer: XUCKY CT is used to measure and monitor alternating current (AC) in a circuit. It provides a scaled-down, isolated representation of the primary current, enabling safe and convenient measurement by instruments such as ammeters or protective relays. The primary winding is typically connected in series with the load, and the secondary winding is connected to the measuring device.
Voltage Transformer: XUCKY VT, also known as a potential transformer, is designed to provide a stepped-down, isolated voltage proportional to the primary voltage. This reduced voltage can be safely measured by low-voltage instruments like voltmeters or used for protection and control purposes. The primary winding is connected across the high-voltage line, while the secondary winding supplies the reduced voltage to the instrumentation.
● Metering: Both CTs and VTs are used in electricity meters to measure power consumption accurately.
● Protection: In protective relaying systems, CTs and VTs provide signals for detecting faults and initiating protective actions.
● Control Systems: They are used in industrial control systems to monitor and control electrical parameters.
● Power Distribution: VTs are crucial in monitoring and regulating voltage levels in power distribution networks.
