  • Page 3: Scope Of Application

    This manual describes the construction, installation, commissioning and monitoring for safe use of a high-voltage instrument transformer with oil-paper insulation. SCOPE OF APPLICATION/ The manual applies to the following transformers: › Current Transformers, CA Series, Models: CA-36..800. › Inductive Voltage Transformers, UT Series, Models UTx-52..525. › Combined Transformers, KA Series, Models KA-36..245.
