Component Description
Current Transformers
Each Current Transformer (CT) can be connected to a circuit by opening or
removing the top of the CT and snapping it onto the wire going from the power
source to the load. THE CT LABEL ALWAYS FACES THE POWER SOURCE.
Be sure to close the CT tightly or it will affect the readings your Enkapsis PQM
provides. Refer to Figure 2 to reference pictures of our most commonly used
CT’s.
Note: We currently offer a variety of CT’s capable of monitoring
current loads ranging from 0 to 5000 amps.
The CT’s may be simply hung on the wire which they snap around. However,
some customers may prefer to use Velcro strips on the bottom or hinged side of
the unit, to allow for ease of mounting and removal when necessary. Velcro is
non-conductive and should not bring any code issues into play.
The white and black lead wires from each CT are associated with specific ports
on the Enkapsis PQM.
Each CT output has two wires. In North America, ALWAYS CONNECT THE
WHITE WIRE FROM EACH CT TO THE CONNECTOR PORT CLOSEST TO
THE VOLTAGE REFERENCE INPUT AND CONNECT THE BLACK WIRE TO
THE SECOND CT INPUT. ALSO BE SURE TO KEEP THE PAIRED LEAD
WIRES TOGETHER. MIXING LEAD WIRES WILL RESULT IN LOSS OF DATA
AND POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO THE UNITS.
