Current transformer metering

Current transformer rated meter sockets

Eaton offers both single meter sockets either with or without  a test switch provision.  Both are equipped to receive ANSI C12.10 watt-hour meters in overhead and underground feeds. Meter sockets with test switch provision include the test switch section under separate cover.  

All CT rated meter sockets come equipped with test switch perch or can be purchased pre-wired and tested according to your local utility's specifications to save on both time and labor investments.

Current transformer mounting bases

Bar type current transformer mounting bases are ½” studs on 1-3/4” centers, and are rated for 400 amp to 800 amp service for use with Eaton CT rated enclosures and ANSI C12.11 bar type current transformers.   For 600 amp applications, use 800 amp current transformer mounting base.

As an alternative to wood panel cabinets, which require individual assembly and loading of each phase, the CT mounting bases offer increased cost savings through the correct spacing and mounting within the  CT enclosure. 

With the B-Line series mounting base, only one drop attachment is required, in comparison to affixing up to eight items using traditional panel-based mountings. 

Test switches

B-Line series test switches offer utility specific arrangements that supply power phase balancing and power factors at point of entry location.
