TE Connectivity 1SNA166638R0500 COR-C-R1-6.6 is a 2 × 4-pole 400 V 15 A ENTRELEC ESSAILEC prewired current test plug with 2.5 mm² conductors, 2 m leads and colour-coded bayonet safety test connections for current transformer, protection and metering circuits.
Why Choose the TE Connectivity 1SNA166638R0500 COR-C-R1-6.6 Prewired Current Test Plug?
The TE Connectivity 1SNA166638R0500 is a specialised prewired current test plug designed for safe and efficient testing of current transformer secondary circuits, protection relays and electrical metering systems. Also identified as the COR-C-R1-6.6, this component forms part of the established ENTRELEC ESSAILEC measuring and testing range and combines a 2 × 4-pole current plug with factory-wired test leads.
Designed to simplify commissioning and maintenance, the COR-C-R1-6.6 is supplied prewired with 2.5 mm² conductors and 2 m cable length. The assembly incorporates four green and four red bayonet safety test plugs, providing convenient connection to compatible test and measurement equipment while reducing the preparation required for routine electrical testing.
The ESSAILEC current testing system uses a make-before-break contact principle, allowing current transformer secondary circuits to be automatically short-circuited during the testing sequence. Rated at 400 V and 15 A, with a 4 kV impulse withstand voltage, the 1SNA166638R0500 provides a purpose-built solution for demanding protection, metering and utility applications.

Reliable Testing of Current Transformer Secondary Circuits
Current transformer secondary circuits require specialised testing arrangements because the secondary should not be left open-circuit while the primary is energised. ESSAILEC test systems address this requirement through a make-before-break contact sequence that automatically establishes the necessary short-circuit path during connection and disconnection procedures.
The COR-C-R1-6.6 combines this dedicated current testing interface with factory-wired leads and colour-coded bayonet safety connectors. This enables engineers to connect measurement or injection equipment quickly and consistently, making the assembly particularly useful for protection relay commissioning, energy metering verification, substation maintenance and routine electrical testing.
Typical Applications
Current transformer secondary circuit testing.
Protection relay testing and commissioning.
Electrical energy metering verification.
Substation protection and control systems.
Switchgear testing and maintenance.
Current measurement and injection test systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the TE Connectivity 1SNA166638R0500 used for?
The 1SNA166638R0500 COR-C-R1-6.6 is a prewired current test plug designed for testing, commissioning and maintenance of current transformer secondary circuits, protection relays and electrical metering systems.
What is included with the COR-C-R1-6.6?
The COR-C-R1-6.6 incorporates a 2 × 4-pole green current plug, four green and four red bayonet safety test plugs, and prewired 2.5 mm² conductors with a 2 m cable length.
What are the electrical ratings of the 1SNA166638R0500?
The COR-C-R1-6.6 is rated at 400 V and 15 A with an impulse withstand voltage of 4 kV.
Why is make-before-break operation important for current transformer testing?
The ESSAILEC make-before-break principle allows the current transformer secondary circuit to be short-circuited before the measurement circuit is disconnected, supporting safer testing without requiring a separate manually operated shorting device.
Where is the COR-C-R1-6.6 typically used?
The COR-C-R1-6.6 is suitable for current transformer circuits, protection relay systems, electrical metering, substations and switchgear where fast and repeatable access is required for current measurement, testing and maintenance.
