Description
A light weight monitoring insulator (data collection device) capable of reproducing in phase proportional sinusoidal current and voltage waves for communication to customer devices (meters, relays, rtu’s, etc.)

Application
Replaces conventional oil-filled CT/PT devices and optical sensors in applications such as voltage and current monitoring, relaying, fault detection (with direction) and autosectionalizing or SCADA operation of switches.

Features & Benefits

  • Small footprint, compact size
  • Less than 10% of the weight of oil-filled devices; minimizes supporting structure size and cost
  • Can be mounted in any orientation including horizontal (cantilever) and under-hung; provides flexibility in areas with limited clearances
  • No CT saturation or PT Ferro resonance
  • No catastrophic failure; cannot overheat or explode
  • Environmentally friendly; no oil or SF6 used as a dielectric; no special material handling or disposal procedures
  • No galvanic connection between high potential and ground. Electrical isolation is provided through the use of an isolated high potential.
  • Generates safe, low voltage and low current outputs
