SEL-SCT
Submersible Separable-Core Current Transformer
The SEL-SCT is designed for applications where it is difficult or uneconomical to open the primary conductor to install a solid-core-type CT. The separable-core design allows the SEL-SCT to be opened to the nominal window diameter and installed over bushings or cables without interrupting the connection. SEL-SCTs are held in place with cable ties. A submersible design option provides reliable use in subsurface vaults where flooding can occur.
The SEL-SCT is encapsulated in flexible vinyl plastic with 600 V-class insulation. It consists of a separable two-part assembly. The SEL-SCT base and body can be pulled apart, placed around a cable, and reconnected. Two included stainless steel worm gear clamps secure the base and body of the current transformer while also preventing water intrusion into the core.

Starting At
$279Subsurface Vault Feeder Monitoring—Use the SEL-SCT in conjunction with an SEL relay, like the SEL-787 Transformer Protection Relay, and an SEL-3060 Ethernet Radio to wirelessly send feeder data to a SCADA system or distribution management system (DMS) or for engineering support. Build an economical system to monitor loads, detect overload conditions, and capture pre- and post-event data.
Load Current and Overcurrent Sensing—Apply SEL-SCTs to serve as an input for source transfer relays. Use SEL-SCTs to distinguish fault current from load current to prevent switching into a fault.
Wet Environment Submetering—Use SEL-SCTs to submeter equipment within wet environments, including water treatment plants, pulp and paper mills, and other environments subject to water and extreme humidity.
Details
- Separable-core design eliminates the need to open the primary cable during installation over existing bushings or cable, resulting in lower installation costs and time than closed-core designs.
- Design allows for installation when secondary load is present.
- SEL-SCT has a rectangular 3.5" window diameter.
- Rugged submersible encapsulation provides 600 V-class insulation and ensures a long product life for applications where flooding and extreme humidity may occur.
- Secondary connections from the cable to the CT windings are sealed in potting compound and further protected with a vinyl coating.
Economically add CTs to existing equipment or cables without taking them out of service.
