[0022] The utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0023] This embodiment discloses an outdoor waterproof split-type current transformer, such as Figure 1-7 As shown, it includes a transformer body 1, which includes an upper shell 2 and a lower shell 3. The upper shell 2 can be hinged and swung relative to the lower shell 3. The abutting surface of the upper shell 2 is provided with a first clamping edge 201 and a third clamping edge 202, and a second sealing ring 203 is provided between the first clamping edge 201 and the third clamping edge 202. The abutting surface of the lower shell 3 is provided with an installation cavity, and the installation cavity is provided with a first sealing ring 301 and a third sealing ring 302, and a second clamping edge 303 is provided between the first sealing ring 301 and the third sealing ring 302. After the abutting surface of the upper shell 2 and the abutting surface of the lower shell 3 are abutted, a multi-stage sealing cavity is formed between the upper shell 2 and the lower shell 3. After the upper shell 2 and the lower shell 3 are closed, the first clamping edge 201 and the third clamping edge 202 arranged on the upper shell 2 can press the first mounting ring and the third mounting ring arranged on the lower shell 3, thereby forming a first waterproof cavity and a third waterproof cavity. At the same time, the second clamping edge 303 arranged on the lower shell 3 presses the second sealing ring 203 arranged on the upper shell 2 to form a second waterproof cavity, thereby forming a maze-like multi-stage sealing cavity as a whole, which greatly improves the overall waterproof performance, prevents the internal coil and the iron core from rusting and corrosion, and thereby extends the overall service life.

[0024] The utility model further provides that the lower shell 3 is provided with a clamping mechanism 4 and a positioning boss 5, and the clamping mechanism 4 is arranged opposite to the positioning boss 5. The utility model further provides that the clamping mechanism 4 includes a mounting block 401, an adjusting screw 402 and a clamping block 403, an adjusting nut 404 is arranged in the mounting block 401, the adjusting screw 402 passes through the mounting block 401 and is matched with the adjusting nut 404, the adjusting screw 402 extends into the clamping block 403, one end of the adjusting screw 402 extending into the clamping block 403 is provided with a mounting groove 6, and the other end is provided with an adjusting knob 7, and a limiting plate 8 is provided on the clamping block 403, and the limiting plate 8 is inserted into the clamping block 403 and plugged into the mounting groove 6. This arrangement can easily replace the accessories of the clamping mechanism 4, and after being worn outdoors, the accessories can be easily replaced so as to continue working.

[0025] The utility model further provides a plurality of locking blocks 9 arranged in a circumferential array on the adjusting nut 404, a chamfer 10 is provided on the upper surface of the locking block 9, a locking rubber 11 is provided inside the locking block 9, the locking rubber 11 contacts the adjusting screw 402, a locking slider 12 is slidably provided inside the mounting block 401, a slope 13 inclined toward the axis of the regulating valve stem is provided on the locking slider 12, and the locking slider 12 is adapted to the locking block 9. During the installation process, after the adjusting screw 402 drives the clamping block 403 to clamp the measured cable, the installer slides the locking slider 12 toward the locking block 9. Since the locking slider 12 is provided with an inclined surface 13 that fits the chamfer 10 of the locking block 9, the locking block 9 is driven to deform toward the adjusting screw 402 during the sliding process, so that the locking rubber 11 provided on the locking block 9 fits with the adjusting screw 402, so that the adjusting screw 402 is locked due to friction, thereby enabling a more stable connection outdoors.

[0026] The utility model further provides an air drying box 14 on the side away from the iron core in the upper shell 2 and the lower shell 3.
