Why Choose the ABB CMS-102DR 20 A Current Sensor?
The ABB CMS-102DR is a compact 20 A TRMS solid-core current sensor designed for detailed circuit-level measurement within ABB circuit and energy monitoring systems. Its 18 mm format and universal DIN-rail mounting make it suitable for installation alongside modular electrical equipment where individual branch-circuit current monitoring is required.
The CMS-102DR provides a 0.1–20 A measuring range and supports measurement of AC, DC and mixed currents. With current accuracy of ≤±0.5% full scale and accuracy class 0.5, the sensor provides dependable measurement for energy analysis, load supervision and electrical-system monitoring.
Measurement information is transmitted through the ABB InSite bus using a flat cable to compatible monitoring equipment. Its compact DIN-rail design, low power consumption and 20 A measurement range make the CMS-102DR particularly suitable for monitoring lower-current final circuits within commercial, industrial and infrastructure distribution systems.

Compact DIN-Rail Circuit Monitoring
The ABB CMS-102DR enables individual electrical circuits to be measured instead of limiting monitoring to the total incoming supply. Its 0.1–20 A range is well suited to lower-current circuits, allowing operators to obtain detailed information about individual loads and identify changes in electrical consumption at branch-circuit level.
The universal DIN-rail mounting arrangement allows the sensor to be positioned where measurement is required without depending on a specific protective-device format. Multiple CMS sensors can form part of a wider ABB monitoring architecture, providing granular current information for energy-efficiency analysis, load management and preventative maintenance.
