XtheEdgeX I think where this misunderstanding started is when you stated, "And don't forget that ct's are directional. There is a polarity mark on them, to distinguish the direction of the flow of current." The "direction of the flow of current" part is misleading. When you say "polarity" and the "direction of flow" it sounds as if you are talking DC. I have to agree with NJwirenut. There is no direction of flow with ac. current. This is more of an orientation issue as in line and load. Do you not agree that Ac current has no direction of flow ? If you say that it does have a direction of flow could you please tell me which way it flows.

Gotta love people who delete all their posts when they are questioned about one of their statements... Kind of destroys any future value in the thread for someone looking through the archives.

It's a pity that all the statements re the CT issue from XtheEdgeX have been edited out by himself. Editing is for spelling mistakes!! Ithought that only a moderator could do that and so it should be. It destroys the discussion going on at that time.

Ray, I thought that only a moderator could do that and so it should be. It destroys the discussion going on at that time. Members can edit their own posts, for things like spelling errors and the like. However, removing the whole thing, as Mr X has chosen to do is a bit on the nose. However, only a moderator can remove the posts entirely.

I removed my posts in an attempt to clean up the mess I started, but yet again, I aggravated some. I obviously got off on the wrong foot here. All I was trying to say, was that a properly installed CT has the polarity mark facing the source, in order to have the secondary outputs to the meter be in the proper orientation, for the meter to read correctly. I don't think I deserved the third degree because my first post was too simplified. But, from now on, if I post, I will be sure to choose my words more carefully, as to not be misleading. Sorry for getting on everyone's nerves.

XtheEdgeX, I accept your apology and sure we have all said things on this BB that we may regret, but to go through and delete your entire postings from a large thread like this has left the whole thing rather dis-jointed. {end of subject, lets just keep this thread on topic, everyone}.
