FAQ

1. How do I select the right RCT current transformer?

Select your RCT current transformer according to the primary current, cable or busbar dimensions, meter input, required accuracy class and rated burden. Share these specifications with HEYI so we can recommend a suitable model and confirm its electrical ratings and installation dimensions.

2. Should I choose a 1A or 5A secondary output?

The secondary output must match your meter’s CT input. For longer secondary cable runs, a 1A output can reduce cable burden compared with a 5A output. Before ordering, confirm the meter input, cable length and cable cross-section, and check the availability of your required RCT configuration.

3. What accuracy classes and rated burdens are available?

The RCT series lists Class 0.5 and Class 1.0 options. The available rated burden depends on the specific model, current ratio and accuracy class. For correct selection, include the meter burden and secondary cable burden, and confirm the corresponding rating in the model-specific datasheet.

4. How do I check whether an RCT fits my cable or busbar?

Compare the CT window dimensions with the cable’s outside diameter, including insulation, or the busbar’s cross-sectional dimensions. Allow sufficient clearance for installation and check the CT’s overall dimensions against the available panel space. Send your conductor dimensions or installation drawing to HEYI for confirmation.

5. Can an RCT current transformer be installed without disconnecting the cable?

For a closed-core RCT, the primary conductor must pass through the CT window, so installation on an existing cable generally requires disconnecting the conductor. Confirm the selected model’s construction before installation. If disconnecting the conductor is impractical, ask HEYI about a suitable split-core current transformer.
