  • Primary current conductor configurations for a residential electronic meter
    Patent number: 6400130
    Abstract: A current sensor assembly includes a plurality of symmetric current conductors that pass asymmetrically through an opening in a toroidal core having a sensing winding wound on the core. A blade is connected to each end of the conductors. Each of the conductors has the general shape of a “V” as viewed along a central axis passing through the opening in the toroidal core.
