SCT-013-000 100A Non invasive AC Current Sensor Split Core Type

SCT-013-000 100A Non invasive AC Current Sensor Split Core Type

A current sensor is a device that can detect electric current in a simple way. If you are looking for a good quality and affordable current sensor, you might be interested in this product.

This is the SCT 013 000 100A Non-invasive AC Current Sensor Split Core Type Clamp Meter Sensor. It is a current transformer that can measure AC current up to 100 amperes without interrupting the circuit.

Current transformers (CTs) are sensors that measure alternating current. They are useful for measuring the electricity consumption or generation of a whole building. The split-core type, such as the SCT-013-000 CT shown in the picture, is easy to use for DIY projects. You just need to clip it onto either the live or the neutral wire that enters the building, without doing any high voltage electrical work.

Like any other transformer, a current transformer has a primary winding, a magnetic core, and a secondary winding. For whole building monitoring, the primary winding is the live or the neutral wire (not both) that passes through the hole in the CT. The secondary winding consists of many turns of fine wire inside the casing of the transformer.
