Study of Instrument Transformers (C.T. & P.T.) Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-EELE-12930
Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Study of Instrument Transformers (C.T. & P.T.) (Product ID: 12930) as part of its electronics engineering lab equipment range. It shows how a current transformer and a potential transformer are connected to measure current, voltage and power in a single-phase circuit.
Quick Answer
The CT and PT (both 10:1 in their measured quantity) are wired into a circuit whose load is three 100 W lamps with individual switches, giving up to 300 W. Two 3½-digit digital AC voltmeters (1000 V and 200 V) read the PT primary and secondary, two digital AC ammeters read the CT primary and secondary (200 mA on the secondary side), and a single-phase, single-element digital low-power-factor wattmeter (230 V nominal, 0-0.5 A) measures power through the instrument transformers. A variac is also part of the set-up. The primary-side ammeter range is not stated; please confirm it at quotation. The board runs from 230 V ±10%, 50 Hz mains with a 2 A fuse. Never open the CT secondary while load current flows.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is true power found with a CT and PT?
Multiply the wattmeter reading by both the CT and PT ratios.
What load is supplied?
Three 100 W lamps with individual switches.
Why must the CT secondary stay closed?
An open secondary on load can develop a dangerous voltage.
