Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0691662A1] The summing current transformer (1) has a wound closed core (2) of highly permeable soft magnetic material for detecting the sum of the currents which flow through wires (5, 6) which pass through the core. The wires connect the core winding to an amplifier (10) of a protection switch (7). The core is formed without insulating intermediate layers or air gaps which divide up the core cross section. The material of the core comprises a metallic alloy with a content of at least 40% nickel which has a positive temperature coefficient of the electrical resistance. <IMAGE>
