2. DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION
2.1. Inverted construction and
primary circuit
The active part of the OSKF current
transformer
is
porcelain insulator. The advantages of
this construction concern the primary
circuit conception. The primary circuit is
short, rigid and straight, minimizing
heating.
In
electrodynamics forces more easily,
allowing high level performance, relating
to electrodynamics and thermal effects,
in a presence of short-circuit currents.

allows also better accuracy in transient
conditions.
2.2. Secondary circuit
The ring-shaped magnetic circuits are
manufactured either from very high
permeability grain oriented steel or from
nickel alloy. In order to achieve a
satisfactory
protection cores can also be provided
with gaps.
OSKF may have metering and protection
cores with different loads and different
accuracy classes. Secondary turns are
evenly wound around the circumference
of the ring-shaped cores. Changing ratio
is available by means of taps on the
secondary or primary side.
