Why Choose the ABB CT4/200 Current Transformer?
The ABB CT4/200 is a reliable 200/5 A current transformer designed to convert high primary currents into a proportional secondary current suitable for electrical metering and measurement equipment. Supplied under ABB order code 2CSG221120R1101, it forms part of the ABB CT4 current transformer series and is designed for use in low-voltage electrical distribution and energy monitoring installations.
With a rated primary current of 200 A and a rated secondary current of 5 A, the CT4/200 allows compatible meters and measuring instruments to monitor circuits carrying currents that would otherwise be too high for direct measurement. Its class 0.5 accuracy and 4 VA rated burden make it suitable for accurate electrical measurement applications.
The CT4/200 is suitable for installation around a cable or busbar and accommodates a primary conductor up to 25 mm diameter or a busbar up to 40 × 10 mm. With screw secondary connections, a 50–60 Hz operating frequency and compact construction, it provides a practical current-sensing solution for switchboards, distribution panels and metering systems.
