  • 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.

  • PRIMARY CURRENT CONDUCTOR CONFIGURATIONS FOR A RESIDENTIAL ELECTRONIC METER
    Publication number: 20020011832
    Abstract: A current sensor assembly includes a plurality of symmetric current conductors that pass asymmetrically through the sensor assembly. A blade is connected to each end of the conductors. The conductors have a diagonal symmetry and have the general shape of a “V” as viewed from the top of the sensor assembly. The conductors pass through an opening located at the center of the current sensor.
