Sorry, those are current transformers, rated for various insulation classes
(e.g. 600 V). You can tell because the specs are something like 500:5,
which means it is designed to monitor a 500 Amp current on a 5 Amp meter. 5
Amp meters are standard in the industry. This is really a 100:1 current
transformer...
