Market Dynamics
Introduction
An instrument transformer is a device used in electrical power systems to transform voltage and current levels for measurement and protection purposes. It comes in two main types: potential transformers (PTs) for voltage and current transformers (CTs) for current. Instrument transformers reduce high voltage and current to standardized, manageable levels suitable for instruments and relays.
PTs typically step-down high voltage to a level compatible with measuring instruments, while CTs reduce high current for accurate measurement and protective relay operation.
Market Drivers
The growing demand for instrument transformers is mainly due to rising concerns regarding grid stability and increasing demand for electricity all over the world. These transformers ensure safety for metering, control, and protection equipment by providing reduced, proportional signals that can be easily handled by standard instruments, improving accuracy and facilitating efficient power system monitoring and management.
