Abstract
A current transformer for large currents having an inductive element, such as a large DC current transformer; a universal current transformer or a wide-band high fidelity current transformer, is improved by providing a shunt circuit which comprises a series connection of a first line comprising a first resistive element and a first inductive element and a second line comprising a series connection of a second resistive element, a second inductive element and the current transformer, wherein the first line is connected in parallel with the second line.
