Current Transformers
Introduction
Trench is a recognized world leader in the
design and manufacture of high voltage
equipment for application on electric
utility and high energy industrial systems.
As part of Trench's product scope, the
Company produces a diversified range of
Instrument Transformers which are installed on 69 - 800kV electrical
systems. Instrument Transformers
include: Voltage (Potential)
Transformers (both inductive and
capacitive type), Current Transformers and Combined Instrument
Transformers (voltage and current
transformer in one unit).
Current Transformers must convert high transmission line currents
(up to 5000 A) to standardized
low and easily measurable values,
which will be used for metering,
protection and control of the high
voltage system. As such, the need
for accurate and reliable current
transformation is essential.

Construction
Standard Equipment
Trench type IK5, IM and IH Current

Transformers are defined as "head
type" Current Transformers. These
CT's are designed and constructed
with the well proven, highly
reliable, oil/paper insulation system.
Each porcelain housed, hermetically
sealed Current Transformer is
equipped with an aluminum head
housing which also serves as the
expansion chamber, compensating
for oil volume changes by means
of a dry nitrogen cushion above
the oil. All Current Transformers
feature a single core with dual
ratio, tapped secondary winding.
aluminum flat pad primary

terminal and ground terminal
The Current Transformer type designations are defined as follows:

IK5- 0.3% accuracy, BO.1-1.8,
standard short time current
rating
IM - 0.3% accuracy, BO.1-1.8,
up to 5 times higher short time
current rating on selected
models
IH - 0.15% accuracy, BO.1-1.8,
standard short time current
rating
For ratio arrangements, individual
customer requirements may
specify:

(suffix S)
dual ratio by series-parallel of

IM
Same design as IK5 with increased mechanical and shorttime thermal current ratings.
IH
Denotes Hi-ACC TM High Accuracy 0.15% metering type.
Other features same as IK5 design.
BIL (kV) Basic Lightning Impulse Insulation Level.

2 The 0.15% parallelogram is constructed using the same principles as the 0.3% parallelogram in
accordance with ANSI Standard C57.13, exept the maximum phase angle and ratio correction
factors of the 0.15% parallelogram are half those of the 0.3% parallelogram.
