Product type
A potential transformer is a type of transformer used to measure high voltages in electrical systems. It reduces the high voltage to a lower, manageable level that can be safely measured by standard instruments. Typically constructed from high-quality electrical steel, potential transformers ensure accurate voltage measurement and are essential for monitoring and controlling electrical systems.
| Voltage rating | Up to 36 kV |
| Frequency | 50/60 Hz |
| Accuracy class | Class 0.5 to Class 1 |
| Insulation class | Class A to Class F |
| Winding type | Single-phase or three-phase |
| Mounting type | Indoor or outdoor |
When selecting a potential transformer, consider the voltage rating and accuracy class required for your application. It's important to specify the insulation class based on the environmental conditions in which the transformer will operate. Additionally, inquire about the mounting type to ensure compatibility with your installation. Always request information on the manufacturer's certifications and tolerances to ensure compliance with industry standards.
