CT Specification
1.0 GENERAL
1.1 This specification covers manufacture, test, & supply of LT Current transformers
of class 0.5 accuracy.
1.2 The CTs shall be suitable for metering purpose.
2.0 TYPE:
2.1 The CTs shall be of ring type or window type (bar type or bus-bar type CTs shall
not be accepted).
2.2 The secondary leads shall be terminated with Tinned Cooper rose contact
terminals with arrangements for sealing purposes.
2.3 Polarity (both for primary and second leads) shall be marked.
2.4 The CTs shall be varnished, fiberglass tape insulated or cast resin, air-cooled type.
Only super enameled electrolytic grade copper wires shall be used.
2.5 The CTs shall conform to IS 2705:Part-I & II/IEC:185 with latest amendments.
3.2 Transformation ratio shall be specified from the following standard ratings as per
requirement :
(Secondary with 1 A may be specified by the utility incase the same is desired.)
3.3 Bore diameter of the CT shall not be less than 40 mm. Ring type CTs shall have
suitable clamp to fix the CT to panel Board, wherever required.
