## Split Core Current Transformer
## Current Transformer Features
Split-core current transformers are used to monitor AC current for various devices. The current transformer input takes a high-voltage current input and produces a proportional low-voltage, low-current signal for measuring and monitoring. Split-core current transformers are ideal for installing onto existing electrical wiring because they can snap around the individual conductors without disconnecting any cables.
These split-core current transformers are compatible with Banner's Condition Monitoring devices (CM1L or Q45CT Nodes, and the S15C-CT-MQ Converters).

## Installing the Current Transformers
Observe the polarity when installing current transformers. Banner's current transformers indicate k (S1) as the source side and l (S2) as the load side, where source refers to the incoming power feed side to the device and the load side is the device side.
Banner's CTs have an etched arrow to indicate the directionality for installation (k (S1) -> l (S2)). As shown in "Figure: Installing a current transformer relative to the power supply/motor" on page 1, the source is the AC power supply and the load is the Motor. The CT direction arrow must point toward the load. Banner's current transformers can be installed on any conductor in a 2- or 3-phase AC line. Current transformers should only be installed on a single conductor. For the correct installation, see "Figure: Installing a single conductor on the current transformer" on page 1.
