Siemens 4ME3 outdoor support-type current transformer

Siemens 4ME3 outdoor support-type current transformer,
Current transformers can be regarded as transformers operating in short circuit, which carry the full rated current on
the primary side. The devices on the secondary side are
series-connected. They can have several secondary windings
with mechanically separated cores of the same or different
characteristics. Thus, current transformers can be designed
e.g. with two measuring cores of different accuracy class, or
with measuring or protection cores with different accuracy
limit factors.
Due to the risk of overvoltages, current transformers must
not be operated with open secondary terminals, but only in
short circuit or with the burden of the measuring equipment.
