Frequently Asked Questions
Can this sensor measure 60 Hz power line current?
Yes, the SCT-013-005 supports frequencies from 50 Hz to 1 kHz, making it fully compatible with 60 Hz mains measurement.
What output does the SCT-013-005 provide?
The sensor outputs an AC current proportional to the primary conductor current; to get a voltage reading, connect a suitable burden resistor (not included) and measure across it with your data acquisition system.
Is the split core design safe for live circuits?
Yes. The non-invasive split core allows you to clamp around live conductors without disconnecting power. Always follow electrical safety guidelines and use appropriate PPE when handling live wiring.
