Current Transformer 400A:50mA for MultiPlus-II (10m)Wire-end

This current transformer is a vital addition for anyone looking to get the absolute most out of a high-capacity power system. Think of it as the eyes of your MultiPlus-II; it clips onto your main electricity cable to monitor exactly how much power is flowing into or out of your property.

By providing this live data, it allows your system to make smart decisions, such as using your stored battery power to lower your bills or giving you an extra boost when you turn on a heavy appliance. If you are running a larger three-phase setup with an external transfer switch, this is the precise tool you need to ensure everything runs smoothly and efficiently.

No Messy Rewiring: The sensor simply clips around your existing live cable, meaning there is no need to cut or rewire your main electrical supply during installation. Lower Energy Bills: It allows your system to prioritise your own solar or battery energy, ensuring you only take power from the grid when you absolutely have to. Stop Tripping Breakers: By monitoring your usage, it enables the system to limit the power taken from the grid, preventing you from overloading your supply. Extra Power on Demand: It helps your batteries work alongside the grid to provide a temporary power boost for high-demand items like electric hobs or power tools. Generous Cable Length: With a 10-metre cable included, you have the flexibility to install the sensor in the best possible position without needing to extend the wires. Built for Big Systems: This specific 400A model is designed for high-power professional installations, providing the robust monitoring required for large-scale setups.

Product Details

The CTR140050100 is a professional-grade 400A:50mA current transformer specifically engineered for use with Victron MultiPlus-II inverter chargers. Its primary role is to provide external current sensing, which is essential for implementing advanced features like PowerControl and PowerAssist. By measuring the AC current on an external conductor without routing that electricity through the inverter itself, the system can determine precisely how much power is being drawn from the grid at any given moment.

This particular model is designed for use in setups involving an external transfer switch. In these configurations, where an external switch replaces the internal AC transfer switches of the MultiPlus-II units, one current transformer is required for each phase of the system. It is an ideal solution for retrofit projects or installations where space is limited, as it provides a faster and simpler alternative to installing a full DIN rail energy meter.

The unit features a 10-metre cable with wire-end terminations, making it compatible with the two-wire terminal connections found on newer MultiPlus-II models. It is important to note that the internal wires are precision-calibrated to the transformer and should not be shortened or extended, as this would affect the accuracy of the readings. When installing, a small arrow on the casing indicates the correct orientation, which should always point towards the MultiPlus unit to ensure the data is captured correctly. Once connected, your system will be fully equipped to optimise self-consumption and, if required, prevent any excess solar energy from being fed back into the grid.
