Overview

The Carlo Gavazzi CTA5X150A5A is a split-core current transformer with a 150A:5A ratio, designed for retrofitting existing electrical systems without disconnecting live circuits. It features a 24mm hole diameter for primary currents up to 300A and a compact PA66 construction with IP20 protection. The transformer delivers a 5A secondary output for compatibility with energy meters requiring 5A inputs. Installation is simplified by its split-core design, allowing quick opening/closing around conductors. Ideal for residential, commercial, and industrial applications where solid-core transformers cannot be installed. Weight: 165g. Operating temperature: -20°C to +65°C. SKU: CTA5X150A5A.
