Verivolt Encore is part of the Verivolt family of current to voltage transducers designed to measure
isolated and ground currents. The main focus of the Encore family is to ease and accelerate mea-
suring the output current from low voltage current sources as well as isolated current transformers
(CT). Particular attention was paid on providing a solution that minimizes cost and improves overall
performance on distributed systems such as substations, building monitoring, power distribution
systems, etc. The Encore series covers the ranges of ±0.1A, ±1A, ±2A, ±3A, ±4A and ±5A with cus-
tomizable bandwidth of up to 40kHz and 0.2% accuracy

DESCRIPTION
Verivolt Encore 5c operates as a current to voltage shunt that
generates a ±100mV range signal for it’s nominal input current
range. This signal can then be processed by a computer based
measurement platform. In conjunction with the EasyConnect fam-
ily, the Encore is the ideal solution for high channel density ap-
plications

Mounting example of Encore
Due to its compact size and shape, the Encore can be easily
mounted anywhere between the signal source and the data ac-
quisition system. The versions up to 5A may even be used inline
with the cable and not require any mounting at all.
All can be secured to fixtures using cable ties.
