Hey everyone, I’m Oliver, and I’ve been working in current transformer (CT) testing for 8 years.From running around with test equipment on site to now leading full inspection teams, I’ve seen how thousands of outdoor CTs go through a whole series of tests — like going through a military training camp — before they can finally be put into service.A few days ago, a friend asked me: “Oliver, our factory just produced a new batch of outdoor

Hey everyone, I'm James, and I've been working with current transformers (CTs) for 10 years.From running around job sites with my mentor, wiring and debugging equipment, to now leading substation projects and handling all kinds of complex CT issues — I’ve worked with a lot of outdoor current transformers over the years. And trust me, I’ve made mistakes, learned from them, and picked up some real-world experience along the way.A few days ago, a fellow engineer asked

1. Research Reasons and Background1.1 Importance of Current TransformersCurrent transformers play the role of current transformation and electrical isolation. They convert the large current of the primary system into a proportional small secondary current, which is supplied to measuring instruments, relay protection, and automatic devices. In the power system, the role of current transformers is irreplaceable and directly plays a key role in the safe and stable operation of the power grid.1.2 Ha

In power grid construction, line losses reflect planning, design, and operation management. They’re key for evaluating power systems. For refined low - voltage transformer area line loss management, accurate line loss counting is critical. So, solidifying basic data, ensuring data accuracy, and proper original data collection matter for analysis. We must also optimize factors affecting collection accuracy, make preventive measures, and boost refined line loss management.1 Current Statu

I'm Echo, a 12-Year Veteran in the CT Industry, Talking About What's Coming NextHi everyone, I'm Echo, and I've been working in the current transformer (CT) industry for 12 years.From learning wiring and equipment debugging with my mentor to now leading a team tackling complex on-site issues, I've witnessed many technological advancements and industry changes. Especially with outdoor current transformers, there have been significant developments, but also much room for improvement.A few days ago

I'm Felix, a 15-Year Veteran in the CT Industry, Sharing What You Need to Watch Out ForHi everyone, I'm Felix, and I've been working with current transformers (CTs) for over 15 years. Today, let’s talk about why the secondary insulation of outdoor CTs sometimes drops, and what you can do to prevent it.Common Causes:1. Moisture Ingress — Poor Sealing is the Biggest Problem!Outdoor CTs are constantly exposed to wind and rain. If the sealing isn't tight enough, moisture can get
