Safety Considerations When Working With Current Transformers

Current Transformers (CTs) are essential components in power systems, facilitating the safe and precise measurement of high currents. While these devices are crucial for metering and protection, handling them, particularly in high-voltage settings, demands strict compliance with safety protocols. Improper handling or installation can result in significant risks, such as electric shock, damage to equipment, and erroneous system monitoring. In this blog, we will discuss the important safety factors to consider when working with current transformers, covering everything from installation methods to maintenance practices, to ensure the safety of both personnel and the system.
