[0003] For the DC method, connect the positive terminal of a dry cell or battery to the P1 terminal of the current transformer's primary winding, and the negative terminal to the P2 terminal. Connect the S1 terminal of the current transformer's secondary winding to the positive terminal of a pointer-type ammeter, and the S2 terminal to the negative terminal. After these connections are made, if the pointer of switch S deflects positively when closing and negatively when opening, the current transformer has subtractive polarity. If the pointer swings in the opposite direction, it has adding polarity.
[0004] The instrument method uses a current transformer polarity tester to verify the polarity of the current transformer. The P1 wire on the primary side of the tester is connected to the P1 polarity end of the current transformer primary winding, and the P2 wire is connected to the P2 polarity end of the current transformer primary winding; the S1 wire on the secondary side of the tester is connected to the S1 polarity end of the current transformer secondary winding, and the S2 wire is connected to the S2 polarity end of the current transformer secondary winding. After connecting the test wires, press the test switch to start the test, and the current transformer polarity is displayed on the device display. Defects and shortcomings of the existing technology: DC method: Using the DC method to verify the polarity of the current transformer requires the preparation of multiple instruments and the cooperation of multiple people.
