1000A peak, 14KV isolation 20Hz to 1.2KHz industrial
The CT-5 High Current Transformer is designed to extend the current measuring capability of either the Tektronix A6302 current probe (used with the AM503 current probe amplifier) or the Tektronix P6021 current probe (use with the type 134 current probe amplifier). With either probe, the CT-5 extends the measurement range by a factor of up to 1000X. The CT-5 includes a pistol grip type handle with receptacles to accept the P6021 or A6302 in either of two positions, providing a choice of two current ranges. A sliding jaw on the transformer permits insertion of the current carrying conductor without breaking the circuit under test. The core and shield assembly is insulated from the windings and the handle allowing measurements on bare conductors with potentials to 3000volts. The accessory high-voltage insulation may be used to extend the allowable voltage to 14kV peak. The DC Bucking Coil and interconnection assembly nullifies the saturating effects of dc currents to 300amperes without appreciably degrading the transformer characteristics. Summary: Max continuous AC current:1000A peak from 20Hz to 1.2Khz @ 25degC ambient. Max pulse current: 50,000A peak. Max voltage isolation: 14kV peak.
