From 500 A, there is a choice between accuracy class 0.5 and 1 for each primary current.
  • Page 17: Notes On Class Accuracy Sct Transformers

    Product overview Notes on class accuracy SCT transformers Current transformers are divided into classes according to their accuracy. The Beckhoff SCT current transformers are available in the standard accuracy classes 0.5; 1 and 3, depending on the product category. The class designation corresponds to an error curve with regard to current amplitude and angular error.

  • Page 76 Application example • The current is measured via 4 current transformers (e.g. from the Beckhoff SCT series) and the connections I and I (star point of the current transformers). Fig. 56: EL3453, power measurement at a machine Negative power values If negative power values are measured on a circuit, please check whether the associated current transformer circuit is connected correctly.
