Working Principle
The JDG-0.5 / JDG4-0.5 voltage transformer operates according to electromagnetic induction. The primary winding is connected to the measured low-voltage circuit, and the secondary winding outputs a reduced voltage signal, typically 100V, for meters, instruments, and relay devices. This allows the primary voltage to be measured safely while providing electrical isolation between the power circuit and secondary equipment.
