A solution for high accuracy measurement of your electric power grid

Outdoor single-phase inductive current transformers type PA72a, PA123a and PA145a are designed to supply measurement and protection systems in electric power grid with the highest voltage of 72.5 kV, 123 kV and 145 kV, respectively, and a frequency of 50 or 60 Hz.

Current transformers type PA72a, PA123a i PA145a are designed using top core construction. The active elements are located in a hermetic housing inside the head of the transformer. PA current transformers are filled with PCB-free transformer oil.

Top core construction makes it possible to achieve high values of thermal and dynamic short-circuit currents, as well as a broad range of rated primary currents and secondary output windings. 


Applications

  • In metering systems for electricity billing
  • in the power grid security systems
  • in the power grid control systems
