The ABB KORC 4L 185R/4 is a high-precision window-type current transformer (CT) designed for 12kV medium-voltage power systems. Part of ABB's renowned KORC series, this CT provides accurate current measurement and reliable protection for industrial switchgear applications, including ABB UniGear and other metal-enclosed switchgear panels .
This model is available under two ABB ordering codes:
1SCA022193R7830
1SCA022142R2670
Both codes refer to the same core specification and are fully interchangeable. The alternative part number CT4L185R/4 is also commonly used for ordering and identification .
