1336-GF-SP2A

The 1336-GF-SP2A current transformer is a current transformer that has been designed and developed by Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation to be used with the 1336 Plus, Impact, Regen, and Plus II series of adjustable frequency drives. 1336-GF-SP2A current transformer has been developed as a spare part and it is meant to replace the current transformer in the base drive. Current transformers are meant to reduce or expand current. The transformer works with alternating current and it protects the drive against ground fault. This instrument provides circuit protection from voltages that are higher than the recommended voltage ratings. This transformer usually protects the primary circuit of the host drive.

The Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation 1336-GF-SP2A current transformer is a ground-fault protection device that protects a drive against electrical faults. Studies demonstrate that 98% of all electrical faults are ground faults. This is one of the main reasons why using the 1336-GF-SP2A current transformer is widely recommended since it can prevent any kind of damage produced by an excessive current. Adjustable frequency drives especially need to be included in a ground system that helps them diminish electromagnetic interference and at the same time, it helps them have higher quality signals. This is important when using devices that need to be receiving and sending signals to a different set of devices. Because it is an electronic device that is receiving current constantly, it is recommended to apply proper ventilation, so it can fulfill its purpose at the expected time. Once this device is damaged, it will need to be replaced immediately so the drive is not left unprotected.
