Chapter VI Accessaries

6.1 Current Transformer

As an external part of Sinexcel AHF, the current transformer plays a key role in the running of AHF, it’s very important for AHF to
select a proper current transformer.
In Sinexcel AHF series, the minimum CT transformation ratio is 150: 5 and the maximum is 10000:5. For the AHF series with LCD and
monitoring modules, the transformation ratio of CT may be set up from 150:5 to 10000:5.

Notices
When buying CT, DO check the transformation ratio of CT is allowed by Sinexcel, and check whether the external CT ratio is consistent to the actual
CT ratio, if it’s not, it might cause abnormity or bad effect.

The precision of external current transformer is required higher than 0.2, if lower one is selected, the compensation precision of Sinexcel
might be affected.

Notices
When selecting CT transformation ratio, it’s advised to select according to the load current, as it may make better harmonic compensation to produce
better effect. It is recommended that the input current of CT is 2~4 times to the load current. For example, if the maximum load current is 1000A,
2000:5~4000:5 is the better selection.

External CT is required to select three in 3-phase 4-wire to respectively install on L1, L2 and L3, required to select two in 3-phase 3-wire
to respectively install on L1 and L3.
As an optional part, the user may select split or fix type current transformer, and the split CT is easy to be installed, while fix CT must be
installed in case of power disconnection of customer terminal.
Note: external CT of Sinexcel AHF is advised to be installed at the load side, namely CT is installed between Sinexcel AHF and the load,
in this way, only three CTs can meet the demand, as shown in figure 6-1: refer to table 4-2 for the detailed wiring numbers.

transformers that have consistent transformation ratio, one is installed at the power side and the other one is installed at the output
28 Chapter VI Accessaries

terminal of the system. And then connect the two CT output terminals in parallel and install on J14/J15/J36/J67/J78 terminal of Sinexcel,
the installation mode of two CTs is described as figure 6-7 shown, the arrowhead’s direction must be consistent to the arrowhead’s
direction on the housing of CT. and the length of signal cable AB must be equal to AC.
Remark: Load side and supply side are both suitable for single AHF. But in parallel configuration system, only the load side is

suggested.

6.2 CT Cable
In Sinexcel AHF products, CT cable is also an optional part. All of the cables are twisted line, each group comprises six cables: yellow +
black, green + black and red + black.

Notices
Six cables have same length in each group for accurate work of the system.
Each phase of cable is required to use twisted-pair, the shield twisted-pair is better, to avoid the interruption of other signals!

For parallel connection of CT output side:

Please note that when multiple sets are connected, the selection of CT cables is very important, as multiple Sinexcel AHFs use one
external CT, consequently the CT cables connecting to each Sinexcel AHF should have same length, if one set uses 10 meters long cable,
and then other five sets must also use 10 meters long cables, which shall ensure consistent communication and realize the optimal effect.
Meanwhile when multiple sets are connected, it requires the CT cable of each set should be connected to the CT wiring terminal from
external CT terminal, as shown in figure 6-8. L1 and L2 have same length.
For series connection of CT output side:
It’s allowed to directly connect one to another, as shown in figure 6-9.

The CT cable specification depends on the length. The STP cable RVVSP 2×2.5 should be suggested for Sinexcel AHF while the length

is less than 15m, the RVVSP 2×4 should be suggested for Sinexcel AHF while the length is more than 15m and less than 30m, and

please contact Sinexcel Electric while the length is more than 30m.

6.3 Connection of Current Transformer

When connecting and installing external CT, it’s specified to connect yellow line to L1, green line to L2 and red line to L3. Take yellow

line as example, connect the yellow line to S1 terminal of CT1 and black to S2 terminal of CT1, as the same, connect green line to S1
