CS11-L Current Transformer 1. General Description Campbell Scientific’s CS11-L (FIGURE 1-1) detects and measures the AC current along an electrical wire using the magnetic field that is generated by that current. The CS11-L does not have direct electrical connection to the system. The sensor outputs a millivolt signal allowing it to be directly connected to our dataloggers. The CS11-L is compatible with our CR200X, CR800, CR850, CR1000, CR3000, CR500, CR510, CR10(X),CR21X, and CR23X dataloggers.

CS11-L Current Transformer WARNING Working with live electrical equipment is dangerous! The user is responsible for ensuring all wiring conforms to local safety regulations and that the enclosure is labeled accordingly. DestAC The DestAC parameter is a variable or variable array in which to store the measurement results. The number of values returned depends upon the option chosen for the configuration parameter.
CS11-L Current Transformer Option Description 2 Split-phase with one voltage measurement and two current measurements. This configuration is typical of residential service-entry panels, as well as residential and commercial distribution panels. Split-phase configurations have two line (or “hot”) conductors plus a neutral conductor. See FIGURE 5-2. FIGURE 5-2.
CS11-L Current Transformer Option Description 3 Three-phase ‘Y’, four-conductor, configurations with three voltage measurements and three current measurements. This configuration is typical of commercial entry panels and commercial distribution panels. The four conductors are three line (or “hot”) conductors plus a neutral conductor. See FIGURE 5-3. FIGURE 5-3. ACPower Configuration 3 LineFrq The LineFrq parameter is the expected line frequency in hertz.
CS11-L Current Transformer MaxVrms The MaxVrms parameter is the expected maximum rms (root mean square) voltage to measure. MaxVrms is specified at the primary of the potential transformer, or equivalently, the non-datalogger side of the potential transformer. Typical values are 120 or 240. The datalogger uses VMult and MaxVrms to calculate which input range to use for the voltage measurement. ChanI The ChanI parameter is the single-ended channel for the current measurement.
CS11-L Current Transformer Current(RepsI). The measured current in amps rms, repeated to give RepsI values. VPhaseI(RepsI). The measured phase angle in radians that the voltage leads the current, repeated to give RepsI values. The cosine of VPhaseI is the power factor. VHarmRatio. The measured voltage harmonic distortion ratio given as the total harmonic content divided by the fundamental content at LineFrq Hz. VHarmRatio is unitless. IHarmRatio(RepsI).
CS11-L Current Transformer Current(3). The measured current in Amps rms for each of the three line conductors. VphaseI(3). The measured phase angle in radians that the voltage leads the current for each of the three line conductors. The cosine of VphaseI is the power factor. VHarmRatio(3). The measured voltage harmonic distortion ratio given as the total harmonic content divided by the fundamental content at LineFrq Hz for each of the three line conductors. VHarmRatio is unitless. IHarmRatio(3).

CS11-L Current Transformer Below is an example CR1000 program. In the program, a multiplier of 0.2 is applied to the rms value; see Appendix A.4, Multiplier, for more information. 6.1.1 Example CR1000 Program 'CR1000 Series Datalogger ' CS11-L_with_ACPower_Instruction.
CS11-L Current Transformer samples 25 times, and the second CR200X example program has a loop that samples 30 times. A 25-sample loop produces almost two cycles of a 60 Hz waveform, and a 30-sample loop produces almost two cycles of a 50 Hz waveform (see FIGURE 6-1). The average energy under the curve is calculated using the RMSSpa instruction. A multiplier of 0.2 is applied to the rms value; see Appendix A.4, Multiplier, for more information.

Appendix A. Theory of Operation A.1 Typical Electrical Circuit An example of a typical electrical circuit is a generator that provides energy in the form of a 60 Hz sine wave. The energy is carried from the point of generation to the point of consumption via two wires. The generator creates an electrical load that lights up the light bulb (see FIGURE A-1). FIGURE A-1. Generator schematic To determine the consumption (amps) of the load, a way is needed to measure what is passing through the wires.
Appendix A. Theory of Operation Wire added during installation Internal shape of the transformer CS11-L FIGURE A-3. Schematic of current transformer with the wire FIGURE A-4. CS11-L with the wire A.2 Current Transformer Description A current transformer is a special kind of transformer that transfers energy from one side to another through magnetic fluxes (see FIGURE A-5). FIGURE A-5.
Appendix A. Theory of Operation The formula for a transformer is as follows (Equation A): i1 • n1 = i2 • n2 Equation A Where i = amps and n = number of turns or windings And where n1 is the primary winding and n2 is the secondary With the current transformer, the primary coils or windings are minimized to avoid removing power out of the circuit, but still have a signal large enough to measure (see FIGURE A-6). Only 1 pass Many windings FIGURE A-6.
Appendix A. Theory of Operation The CS11-L contains a 10-ohm burden (shunt) resistor (R=10 ohm). Therefore, E is: E = 0.01 amps • 10 ohms = 0.1 volts (or 100 mV) From these calculations, it can be determined if a better resolution on the measurement is needed. The Range Code can be lowered to 250 mV for some dataloggers. A.4 Multiplier Use Equation D to calculate the multiplier.
