Overview

The Littelfuse 5SHT-101-E is a current transformer (CT) with a 100:5A ratio and a 2VA burden rating, designed for precise current measurement in industrial electrical systems. This CT steps down high primary currents to a lower, measurable secondary current (5A), enabling safe integration with standard ammeters, relays, and control devices. The 2VA rating ensures compatibility with connected secondary instrumentation without sacrificing accuracy, even under fluctuating load conditions. The 5SHT-101-E features a 1.0" window for conductor sizing up to 15hp, making it suitable for motor control, power distribution panels, switchgear, and automation systems. Its robust construction withstands industrial environments, providing reliable performance for power monitoring, energy management, and protective relaying. The 100:5A ratio simplifies integration with existing measurement and protection equipment, while the CT’s design supports fault detection and overcurrent protection schemes. The 5SHT-101-E is a fundamental component for accurate current sensing in industrial electrical infrastructure.
