Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electric quantity measurement, in particular to a combined current transformer module with a zero-sequence CT. Background Art
[0002] Current transformer is an important component for current detection in the electrical field. It can convert large load current into a small current that can be used for collection, facilitating the measurement and calculation of electrical quantity.
[0003] At present, the load current measurement of photovoltaic micro-breakers mainly adopts three-way split open CT, and then the vector data of the three-phase current is combined and calculated to obtain the zero-sequence current; however, although the split open CT used is easy to install, it is large in size, high in cost, low in precision, and has messy wiring. In particular, the zero-sequence current synthesized by vector is easily affected by harmonics and three-phase imbalance, resulting in large errors and frequent malfunctions of the switch. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is that when the existing three-way split open CT is used to measure the load current of the photovoltaic micro-breaker, the volume is large, the cost is high and the accuracy is low.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a technical solution: a combined current transformer module with a zero-sequence CT, comprising a shell, a three-phase current transformer and a zero-sequence current transformer, characterized in that: the three-phase current transformer and the zero-sequence current transformer form a transformer group with axes parallel to each other and are arranged in the shell, a circuit board connected to the secondary output signal line of the transformer group is arranged in the shell, the circuit board is provided with wiring terminals extending out of the shell, and wire holes are provided on opposite sides of the shell, and the axes of the wire holes are parallel to the axis of the transformer group.
[0006] Furthermore, the three three-phase current transformers are arranged on the circuit board in a front-to-back staggered manner.
[0007] Furthermore, the housing includes an L-shaped left housing and a right housing, the left housing and the right housing are buckled together to form a chamber for storing the mutual inductor group and the circuit board, and are connected and fixed by bolts.
[0008] Furthermore, a groove is provided on one side of either the left shell or the right shell, and forms a lead hole for the connecting terminal to extend out with a side of the other shell.
[0009] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0010] 1. This application combines a three-phase current transformer and a zero-sequence current transformer into one. The size specifications, lead-out line aperture, transformation ratio parameters, etc. all meet the actual needs of photovoltaic micro-breakers. At the same time, it has the ability to convert three-phase current and zero-sequence current, and has the characteristics of simple structure, small size, and easy installation.
[0011] 2. The present application is small in size and can be placed directly inside a narrow photovoltaic grid-connected box. Because of its simple manufacturing process, the cost is significantly lower than that of an open CT, especially for the zero-sequence current transformer. Compared with the vector synthesis method, the use of an independent CT can improve the anti-interference ability and stability, and the accuracy is significantly improved. At the same time, the rated transformation ratio of the three-phase current transformer and the zero-sequence current transformer can be selected according to actual conditions to meet actual needs.
[0012] 3. In this application, the secondary output signals of the three-phase current transformer and the zero-sequence current transformer are led out through the wiring terminals on the PCB circuit board. The output signals are transmitted using flat cables. The wiring is simple and neat, and there will be no phenomenon of split CT signal lines being randomly coiled.
