What are Combined CT-VT Metering Units? Explain its advantages & disadvantages.

The combination of CT and VT metering units is one of the major innovations. With these units, two significant devices come together into a single device. The two devices are:

  1. Current Transformers (CTs)
  2. Voltage Transformers (VTs)

Keep reading this blog to understand the importance of these two units.

Combined CT-VT Metering Units

The main purpose of CT-VT metering units is to measure the exact consumption of electricity used and how strong it is. With these combined systems, measuring electricity in systems with high voltage becomes very easy.

Benefits of Combined CT-VT Metering Units

Here are some of the lesser–known benefits of CT-VT metering units.

Compact

Since these combined units have the quality to integrate everything in one small package, you do not need separate big devices that capture a lot of space. Also, it is very easy to install combined units

Accurate measurement

Another advantage is the accurate measurement of electricity. The units help you measure the used electricity accurately, ensuring bills are correct and well-managed energy. 

Easy to install and set up

I don’t think setting up combined units is very complex. It is, instead, very simple and faster than installing and setting up many different separate transformers. Combined CT-VT Metering Units save you valuable time and money during installation. 

Disadvantages of Combined CT-VT Metering Units

There are some general drawbacks, but they can be avoided easily. 

  • It can be tricky and requiring experts to design and build these units is tricky.
  • You may need to replace the entire unit even with a breakdown of just a single part of the unit. This may lead to higher maintenance costs and more downtime.
  • Combined CT-VT metering units may not function well in every situation. They may not do well with every voltage level. Therefore, choosing the right unit is important. Make sure to pick one that fits your specific requirements.

Conclusion

If you are looking for a precise solution to measure accurate electricity consumption, then combined CT-VT metering units are the way to go. They are beneficial for several reasons, including space efficiency, easy installation, accurate measurement of electricity used, and many others.
