Why Choose the ABB CT1M-6 1000 Current Transformer?
The ABB CT1M-6 1000 is a through-primary 1000/5 A current transformer designed for indirect measurement of electrical network parameters. Supplied under ABB order code 2CSG280475R1000, it transforms a rated primary current of 1000 A into a proportional 5 A secondary current for compatible energy meters, ammeters and multifunction measuring instruments.
Part of ABB's CT1M current-transformer range, the CT1M-6 1000 is designed in accordance with IEC 61869-2. It provides a best accuracy class of 0.5, with rated burdens of 20 VA at class 0.5, 30 VA at class 1 and 20 VA at class 3, providing substantial measurement capacity for high-current commercial and industrial electrical systems.
The CT1M-6 frame provides a large through-primary aperture capable of accommodating cables up to 65 mm diameter and horizontal or vertical busbars up to 80 × 10 mm, 60 × 30 mm or 50 × 50 mm. Its 126 × 104 × 45 mm enclosure, IP20 protection and 50–60 Hz rated frequency make it well suited to high-current switchboards, distribution panels and metering assemblies.

Reliable Indirect Current Measurement for High-Current Metering
Current transformers enable electrical measuring equipment to monitor circuits carrying currents far beyond the direct-input capability of conventional meters. The ABB CT1M-6 1000 converts a rated 1000 A primary current into a proportional 5 A secondary current, providing a standardised signal for compatible energy meters, ammeters and multifunction monitoring equipment.
With class 0.5 accuracy available at a substantial 20 VA burden, the CT1M-6 1000 is particularly suited to demanding current and energy measurement applications. Its large conductor aperture supports sizeable cables and busbars, while standard busbar and mounting-foot fixings plus an optional DIN rail adapter provide flexibility when integrating the transformer into commercial and industrial electrical distribution assemblies.
Typical Applications
- Indirect electrical current measurement up to 1000 A.
- Energy meters with 5 A current-transformer inputs.
- Ammeters and multifunction electrical measuring instruments.
- Main commercial and industrial switchboards.
- High-current electrical distribution panels.
- Large-cable and busbar metering installations.
- Energy monitoring and load-analysis systems.
