SCT-013-000 Non-Invasive AC Current Sensor CT Clamp 100A=50mA

This is a Non-Invasive AC Current Sensor Clamp, also know as a CT Clamp. It is the genuine YHDC brand. The SCT-013 is available in a couple of different versions. This version(SCT-013-000) is the most common one used, and will output 0 to 50mA when the measured wire is conducting 0 to 100A. It does NOT have an internal resistor. Normally it will be connected to a resistor on the target board that will convert the current (0-50mA) to a voltage.

Current transformers (CTs) are sensors that are used for measuring alternating current. They are particularly useful for measuring whole building electricity consumption (or generation for that matter). The split core is particularly suitable for DIY use it can be clipped straight on to either the live or neutral wire coming into the building without having to do any high voltage electrical work.

Common applications include current measurement, monitoring and protection of AC motor, lighting equipment, air compressor, etc. 

Note: Colour might change due to different batches.
