Overview

The Hammond Power FCL500-5-4 is a 333mV split-core AC current sensor designed for accurate current measurement in active harmonic filter applications. With a 4-inch inner diameter (Ø 1.77 in / 45 mm window size), this sensor supports primary currents from 20A up to 600A, with this specific model rated for up to 500A. It offers high accuracy with a typical 0.5% accuracy rating and low phase angle error, crucial for precise power and energy monitoring. The built-in burden resistor provides a safe 0.333 Vac output at rated full-scale current, eliminating the need for shorting blocks. Its hinged, split-core design allows for easy installation on existing conductors without requiring power disconnection, minimizing downtime. The Accu®-CT sensor is cULus 2808 listed, ensuring robustness and high dielectric resistance. It is compatible with power meters accepting a 333mV current sensor input, such as DIRIS A-100/A-200 (333 mV models), WattNode, and DIRIS MCM. Manufactured in the US, this sensor meets IEEE/ANSI C57.13 and IEC 61869-1 standards.
