Type marking
The letters and numerals applied in type markings have the following meanings:
M – synthetic resin insulated
A – current transformer
S – outdoor design
12, 24, 40 – highest voltage for equipment
General description
The current transformers types MAS-12, -24, -40 are manufactured for 10–600 A, with primary changeover for 2×5–2×300 A rated primary currents. The current transformers comply with the specifications of MSZ EN 60044-1 and EN 60044-1 standards. It is also possible to produce according to other standards, differing from the afore-mentioned
The MAS-12, -24, -40 loop type current transformers are manufactured of single or double core design, with synthetic resin insulation for outdoor use with primary changeover possibility. The secondary winding is wound up to a ring core, made of cold rolled electrical steel.
The primary connection is possible to cylindrical terminal blocks located on the upper part of the device.
In case of primary changeover the current transformer will be manufactured with 10 x 60 x 163 mm primary terminals of copper. The changeover can be carried out by means of connecting lamellas according to the connection drawing.
The terminals and lamellas are protected by plating. The lower part of the device is made of cast aluminium. On this casting can be found the secondary terminals, closed with a watertight sealable cover. The connecting wires can be lead through a PM16 stuffing box.
Packing, delivery
The current transformer is delivered in a finish suitable for use under normal climatic conditions, packed in corrugated paper box, but upon agreement also in packing fit for marine or aerial transport.
Storage
In case of a long-term storage, it is practical, to keep the current transformer in a covered, well ventilated room
Installation, putting into operation, operation
Before installation the current transformer should be checked in order to discover on the surface, or on the terminals any possible damages occurred during the transportation or the storage. The soundness of the synthetic resin body, the terminal blocks, the secondary cover, the connection lamellas (in case of primary changeover) and the availableness of the attached primary terminals are to be controlled. The current transformer can be lifted by means of the two eye bolts attached. Rough lifting, pull about should be avoided.
The current transformer can be installed only in upright position. The fastening to the supporting structure can be accomplished by four M12 bolts.
The M12 earthing screw (for protective earthing) can be found on the lower part of the cast aluminium on the opposite side to the secondary terminals. The connection to the secondary terminals is achieved by M6 screw. The earthing of one point of the secondary winding (system earthing) suggested.
The operation is possible keeping the prescriptions of the relevant security-, labour- and property-protection directives. Any faults and breakdowns emerging in the Customer’s sphere of interest due to breaching, disobeying the afore-mentioned, exempt the manufacturer from the warranty and guarantee liabilities.
Maintenance
The maintenance consists of works to be done according to the general rules for outdoor instruments and discontinuing of the accidental irregularities. These are:
– periodical inspection of the contamination and cleaning, depending on the degree of impurity,
– inspection of the surfaces,
– periodical inspection and tightening of the bolts of the primary and secondary terminals,
– inspection and tightening of the fastening bolts.
State verification
The secondary windings of the current transformers in classes 0.2 and 0.5 are manufactured in finish suitable for verification. The verification will be made only on special request, in this case it will be accomplished and documented by an official seal or an affixed verification stamp, by the State Office for Measurement.
Data to be submitted with the order
