What it represents

A split-core CT can be assembled around the specified existing conductor.

Allow opening travel, fastening access and secondary routing. The GA locates the physical item; the associated schematic or equipment schedule records its electrical interfaces.

The preview is independent educational geometry and is not a manufacturer outline, fabrication drawing or verified standard graphic. Obtain the applicable model drawing from the cited official source before making a dimensional layout.

How to read it

  • Allow opening travel, fastening access and secondary routing.
  • A split core is a construction feature, not a complete accuracy specification.

Information to show or reference

  • Confirm the exact equipment identity, drawing revision and installation orientation.
  • Allow opening travel, fastening access and secondary routing.
  • Cross-reference the terminals, cable routes and service tasks with the equipment schedule.

A distinction that matters

A split core is a construction feature, not a complete accuracy specification.
