The main benefit is that the behavior of the sen-
sor is not influenced by non-linearity and width of
hysteresis curve, which results in a highly accu-

range of measured quantities. A linear and highly
accurate sensor characteristic in the full operat-

Voltage measurement in KEVA C sensors is based
on the resistive divider principle. The output volt-

Connector adapters
To provide connectivity between a sensor with a
RJ-45 cable connector and IEDs with Twin-BNC
connectors a group of adapters were designed.
To provide connectivity between current and volt-
age sensors with RJ-45 cable connectors and
IEDs with RJ-45 connector the coupling adapter
was designed.

The use of connector or coupling adapters has no


influence on the current and/or voltage signal and
accuracy of the sensor with the cable.
