Eaton CT-SP-6-2000-5A Current Sensor - ANSI/IEEE C12.20
Part Number: CT-SP-6-2000-5A
Quick Summary
The Eaton CT-SP-6-2000-5A current sensor provides a 5A output for precise power monitoring in industrial panels. Engineers often confront accuracy drift and installation complexity in crowded switchgear, which this compact split-core sensor mitigates. It carries RoHS compliance and ANSI/IEEE Std C12.20 certification, supporting regulatory alignment in critical power distribution networks. With a 2000A primary rating, 5A secondary, and quick CT-SP-6 compatibility, it reduces wiring, labor, and overall life-cycle costs. Designed for applications in motor control centers, metering booths, and switchgear retrofits, it integrates with Eaton's CT-SP-6 ecosystem. Its 600 V input, 0.5% accuracy, and 8 VA burden support accurate monitoring without excessive burden on the measurement circuit.

FAQs
Install by clamping the device around the target conductors in the panel using the split-core design. Ensure the orientation aligns with the primary current path, connect the secondary leads to the monitoring or metering module, and verify voltage ratings up to 600 V. This single-step clamp-on approach minimizes downtime and avoids conductor disconnections, making retrofits fast and safe.
Key specs are 0.50% accuracy and an 8 VA burden on the secondary. The device supports a 2000A primary rating with a 5A secondary output and accepts up to 600 V input. These figures ensure precise current measurement with minimal circuit loading, suitable for reliable metering and protective relay applications in power distribution.
Yes. Its 2000A primary rating and 5A secondary output, combined with a compact split-core design, make it well-suited for metering and monitoring in motor drives, feeders, and power meters. The 600 V input tolerance and RoHS/ANSI C12.20 certifications further support accurate data collection in industrial environments.
The CT-SP-6-2000-5A carries RoHS compliance and ANSI/IEEE Std C12.20 certification, aligning with environmental and safety standards for electrical equipment. A one-year Eaton warranty (or 18 months from shipment) provides assurance of performance, while regulatory-ready features reduce risk when deploying in regulated facilities and data centers.
ROI comes from faster installations, reduced labor costs due to the split-core design, and improved measurement accuracy that enables better energy management. By enabling precise metering and reliable protection without oversized hardware, facilities can optimize maintenance schedules, identify energy waste, and extend equipment life with data-driven decisions.
