To connect and select a single-phase current transformer (CT) for the Tense RGT-MT18:
1. Use the "up" and "down" buttons to enter the CT ratio (e.g., 150/5A). 2. Press the "confirm" button to start the CT test automatically. 3. If connections are correct, the device completes the CT test and starts step measurement. 4. Press "confirm" again to record the steps, or "cancel" to discard.
Note: Single-phase compensation is not recommended for three-phase systems; ensure the system is balanced before connecting the CT.

Thus it endeavors to reduce the inductive/active and capacitive/active rates of the system. It is designed to make more sensible compensation at the unbalanced inductive and capacitive systems with RGT-MT18 TCR(SVC) step. Features 5 "Easy to install and use with touch (resistive) display...
Warnings Use the device according to our instructions. Avoid direct sun light in order not to harm the LCD screen. Leave at least 10 cm of space behind the device after mounting. Fix the device with apparatus which comes within the device by avoiding any kind of shake on the front cover of the board.
It is recommended that class of the current transformers (it can be also mentioned class, klas, kl, cl ) should be 0,5 which will be used at the compensations. Only X5A current transformers can be connected to the RGT-MT18. Be careful about the absence of any load before the current transformers. Otherwise there can be differences between reactive and counter.

Single Phase Connection Scheme in Three Phase Systems It is not recommended to use single-phase compensation for three-phase systems. The device intervenes only with single phase. It is not known how this intervention will result in the other two phase This connection should be preferred after ensuring that the three-phase system is balanced.
