LT/CT Panel

LT/CT Panel


An LT/CT panel typically refers to a Low Tension (LT) panel with Current Transformers (CTs). Let's break down these terms:

Low Tension (LT) Panel:

Low Tension (LT): In the context of electrical systems, "Low Tension" usually refers to voltages below 1,000 volts. LT panels are electrical distribution panels designed to handle and distribute electrical power at lower voltages, typically for residential, commercial, or industrial purposes. These panels receive power from the main distribution board and distribute it to various sub-circuits.



Current Transformer (CT): A current transformer is a device that is used to measure electric current. It steps down the current to a level that is suitable for measurement or protection purposes. CTs are often used in conjunction with instruments, meters, and protective relays to monitor and control the flow of current in electrical systems.
