Tense ATM-300 300/5A 30mm Measurement Current Transformer
The Tense ATM-300 is a professional grade, high capacity measurement current transformer (CT) designed to step down heavy primary alternating currents within commercial switchgear and industrial distribution networks. Featuring a standardized transformation ratio of 300/5A, this device effectively scales high line currents up to 300 A down to a safe, manageable 0–5 A secondary output. This proportional signal provides precise, real time data monitoring for digital power analyzers, ammeters, and automated energy management controllers. Outfitted with an optimized 30 mm rectangular/busbar window opening, it allows for flexible, drop in integration over solid copper conductors or heavy insulated cables.
Key Features
-
High Capacity Current Scaling: Delivers a reliable 300/5A conversion ratio, enabling accurate monitoring of heavy load distributions across main electrical sub panels.
-
30 mm Busbar Window: Engineered with a clean rectangular internal profile tailored for non invasive pass through mounting directly over power busbars or thick phase conductors.
-
Hinged Safety Terminal Guards: Built with protective red flip top safety shields that completely isolate the secondary screw contacts (S1 and S2), safeguarding plant operators from accidental shock.
-
Flame Retardant Polymer Casing: Enclosed in a compact, rugged, self extinguishing housing that provides high dielectric strength and absolute thermal stability under continuous peak currents.
-
Integrated Panel Mounting System: Includes pre molded base brackets and retention slot paths to support secure horizontal or vertical anchoring inside dense electrical cabinets.
