Chapter 3 Measurement Preparations
Current sensors in the 9709, 9272, CT6860, and CT6840 series are available in two variants: one version
with a metal connector, in which case the model number ends in -05, and another with a black plastic
connector, in which case the -05 is omitted. Sensors with a metal connector can be connected directly to
the instrument’s current input terminal.
Current sensors with a black plastic connector (whose model numbers lack the -05) can be connected to
the instrument’s current input terminal by using the optional CT9900 Conversion Cable.
When connecting the CT6865 (rated for 1000 A) or CT6846 (rated for 1000 A) with the CT9900 Conver-
sion Cable, the sensor will be recognized as a 500 A AC/DC sensor. Use a CT ratio setting of 2.00.
