Combined line and phase voltmeter selector

This representation identifies a selector covering phase-to-phase and phase-to-neutral voltage measurements. One selector covers both line-to-line and line-to-neutral measurements. The measurement function changes with position even though the meter and its physical terminals remain the same.

Current transformer

A current transformer produces a secondary current related to the current in its primary conductor. A drawing uses the CT representation to show where current is measured and which metering or protection circuit receives that measurement. It does not, by itself, specify the CT ratio, accuracy class, burden or secondary connection.

A distinction that matters

A CT measures current. A VT measures voltage. Their secondary circuits and isolation/testing arrangements are different.
