Blue Sea 8256 AC Current Transformer

The Blue Sea 8256 AC Current Transformer is a precision instrument designed for marine electrical systems where accurate AC current measurement is essential for safe operation and diagnostics. This transformer is ideal for those managing auxiliary generators, shore power integration, or complex AC distribution networks, providing reliable sensing capability for monitoring systems.

The 8256 works by inductively coupling AC current flow to a secondary circuit, allowing your marine electrical monitoring panel to safely measure high amperage loads without direct electrical contact. Its compact 3 × 1 × 5-inch form factor makes it easy to install in tight engine room spaces, while its weight of 0.1 lbs ensures it won't burden your vessel's systems.

Marine electricians, liveaboards, and yacht owners integrating Blue Sea Systems AC monitoring panels will find the 8256 essential for monitoring electrical loads and protecting expensive equipment during extended offshore passages. This transformer is compatible with various AC monitoring panels, making it a versatile choice for marine applications.
