Product Information

Full details

This guide is for electrical engineers and technicians working with power monitoring and control systems. The Schneider Electric METSECT Series Toroidal Ring Current Transformer (MPN: METSECT5CC013) offers reliable current measurement for DIN rail installations. A key benefit is its tropicalized design, providing enhanced durability in various environmental conditions. However, users should note that specific tropicalization for busbar mounting is only available on certain models (913-99747). This transformer features a 125:5 ratio, a 21mm bore, IP20 protection, and a wide operating temperature range.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What does 'tropicalized' mean for this current transformer?

Tropicalized means the transformer is treated to withstand higher humidity and temperature conditions, making it more resistant to environmental degradation in tropical or humid climates.

What is the maximum cable/busbar diameter that can fit through the bore?

The bore size for this model (METSECT5CC013) is 21mm.

What is the secondary current output?

The secondary current output for this transformer is 5A.

Can this transformer be used for DC circuits?

No, current transformers are designed for AC (Alternating Current) circuits only.

What is the IP rating and what does it protect against?

The IP20 rating means it is protected against solid objects larger than 12.5mm (like fingers) but offers no protection against water ingress.

What is the operating temperature range?

The operating temperature range is -25°C to +60°C.

How is this transformer mounted?

It is designed for DIN rail mounting.

Troubleshooting

No current reading or inaccurate readings

Verify that the primary conductor is correctly passed through the bore. Check that the secondary connections are secure and correctly wired to the measuring device. Ensure the transformer ratio is correctly configured in the connected device.

Transformer overheating

Ensure the primary conductor's current does not exceed the transformer's rated capacity. Verify that the secondary circuit is not open, as this can cause high voltage buildup. Check for loose connections.

Physical damage to the unit

If visible damage is present, do not install or use the transformer. Contact your supplier for a replacement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable tropicalized construction for challenging environments.
  • Easy DIN rail mounting saves installation time.
  • Versatile with a wide range of available ratios.
  • Standard 5A secondary output simplifies integration.
  • Robust operating temperature range.

Cons

  • Specific busbar tropicalization requires checking model numbers.
  • IP20 protection limits suitability in wet or dusty areas.
  • Bore size limits the diameter of conductors that can be accommodated.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the power to the circuit is completely isolated before installation.
  2. Mount the transformer securely onto a standard DIN rail.
  3. Pass the primary conductor (cable or busbar) through the 21mm bore.
  4. Connect the secondary winding terminals (typically marked 'A1' and 'A2') to your metering or protection device.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with standard DIN rail mounting systems.
  • Designed to work with electrical measuring instruments that accept a 5A secondary current input.
  • Suitable for AC circuits.

Care:

  • Periodically inspect for dust or debris buildup. Clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use solvents.
  • Ensure connections remain clean and tight to maintain accurate readings.
  • Verify that the operating temperature remains within the specified -25°C to +60°C range.
