Construction
The LZZBJ9-12D1 / D2 features an indoor enclosed epoxy cast-resin structure, ensuring high dielectric strength, moisture resistance, and mechanical durability. The primary conductor path passes through the center of the core, with top-mounted primary terminals for secure connection. Secondary windings are housed within the cast-resin body and terminated at a lower terminal block, allowing clear separation of metering and protection circuits. The compact rectangular design accommodates multi-secondary configurations while maintaining a small footprint suitable for modern switchgear layouts. All internal components are fully encapsulated in epoxy resin, providing reliable performance under normal indoor operating conditions.

Selection & FAQs
Selection Guide
- Select D1 or D2 from the approved outline, mounting base, primary-terminal interface and required secondary-core grouping.
- Choose one of the listed 50A–2000A ratios from load, metering range and fault study; note the catalogue sequence has gaps.
- Specify 1A or 5A and order 1S–4S cores with explicit 0.2(S), 0.5(S) or 5P20 functions and terminal assignments.
- Verify per-core reference outputs of 10VA, 15VA or 20VA against instrument/relay and lead burden.
- Check ratio-specific 21kA–80kA thermal and 52.5kA–200kA dynamic duty, 12/42/75kV insulation, clearances and grounding.
