3. Informazioni sulla sicurezza
ATTENZIONE: Pericolo di scossa elettrica. L'installazione e la manutenzione devono essere eseguite solo da personale qualificato.
- Always de-energize the primary circuit before installing or servicing the current transformer.
- Never open the secondary circuit of an energized current transformer. This can lead to dangerously high voltages and potential injury or equipment damage.
- Assicurarsi che tutti i collegamenti siano sicuri e adeguatamente isolati.
- Verify the correct polarity before connecting the CT to metering or protection devices.
- Indossare adeguati dispositivi di protezione individuale (DPI) quando si lavora con impianti elettrici.
4. Configurazione e installazione
Installation of the ABB Type CLE Current Transformer requires adherence to local electrical codes and safety standards. It is recommended that a certified electrician or qualified technician perform the installation.
- De-energize Circuit: Ensure the primary circuit where the CT will be installed is completely de-energized and locked out according to safety protocols.
- Montaggio: Securely mount the CT using appropriate hardware. The CT is designed to encircle the primary conductor.
- Primary Conductor: Pass the primary conductor through the center opening of the current transformer.
- Secondary Connections: Connect the secondary terminals (X1 and X2) to the metering or protection device. Observe correct polarity as indicated on the nameplate (H1-H2 for primary, X1-X2 for secondary). X1 typically corresponds to H1, and X2 to H2.
- Messa a terra: Ensure the secondary circuit of the CT is properly grounded at one point, typically at the X2 terminal, to prevent high voltage accumulo.
- Verifica connessioni: Double-check all wiring for correctness and tightness.
- Re-energize: Once installation is complete and verified, the primary circuit can be safely re-energized.
5. Istruzioni per l'uso
The ABB Type CLE Current Transformer operates passively by inducing a proportional current in its secondary winding based on the primary current flowing through its core. Once installed, it requires no active user intervention for its primary function.
- Monitoraggio: The output of the CT (typically 5 Amps at rated primary current) is fed into a connected meter, relay, or other monitoring device. Refer to the instruction manual of the connected device for its operation.
- Load (Burden): Ensure the connected load (burden) on the secondary circuit does not exceed the CT's rated burden (e.g., B0.1 through B1.8 as indicated on the nameplate). Exceeding the burden can lead to inaccurate readings and potential damage.
- Polarità: Correct polarity is crucial for accurate directional measurements and proper operation of protective relays.
6. Manutenzione
The ABB Type CLE Current Transformer is designed for long-term, reliable operation with minimal maintenance. However, periodic inspections are recommended to ensure optimal performance and safety.
- Ispezione visiva: Periodically inspect the CT for any signs of physical damage, discoloration, or loose connections.
- Pulizia: If necessary, gently clean the exterior of the CT with a dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the power is off before cleaning.
- Controllo del terminale: Verify that all secondary terminal connections remain tight and free from corrosion. This should only be done with the primary circuit de-energized and the secondary circuit shorted or connected to a safe load.
- Condizioni ambientali: Ensure the operating environment remains within the specified temperature and humidity ranges to prevent premature degradation.
7. Risoluzione Dei Problemi
Most issues related to current transformers stem from improper installation or external circuit problems. Always prioritize safety when troubleshooting.
| Problema | Possibile causa | Soluzione |
