Why Choose the ABB CT1M-2 100 Current Transformer?
The ABB CT1M-2 100 is a compact and reliable 100/5 A current transformer designed for indirect measurement of electrical network parameters in low-voltage distribution systems. Supplied under ABB order code 2CSG280255R1000, it forms part of the ABB CT1M current transformer series and complies with IEC 61869-2.
With a rated primary current of 100 A and a rated secondary current of 5 A, the CT1M-2 100 converts the primary circuit current into a proportional standard secondary signal for compatible electricity meters, ammeters, power analysers and monitoring equipment. Its class 0.5 accuracy supports precise electrical measurement in commercial and industrial installations.
The CT1M-2 100 uses a through-primary design suitable for cable and horizontal busbar installations. Its compact 45 × 65 × 40 mm enclosure, IP20 degree of protection and 50–60 Hz rated frequency make it a practical metering accessory for switchboards, distribution panels and energy monitoring systems.

Reliable Indirect Current Measurement
Current transformers allow electrical meters and monitoring instruments to measure circuits carrying currents above their direct-input range. The ABB CT1M-2 100 transforms a primary current of up to 100 A into a proportional 5 A secondary current, allowing compatible equipment to perform indirect measurement of electrical network parameters.
The CT1M range is designed for current measurement in main and sub-distribution systems. Its compact through-primary construction enables the primary cable or busbar to pass through the transformer, while the standardised secondary output can be connected to suitable metering and monitoring equipment.
Typical Applications
- Electrical energy metering systems.
- Main and sub-distribution switchboards.
- Low-voltage electrical distribution panels.
- Power and network monitoring systems.
- Building energy management installations.
- Industrial electrical measurement systems.
- Panel-mounted ammeters and power analysers.
- Commercial and industrial energy monitoring.
