  • Patent number: 7923986
    Abstract: A device for measuring a current flowing in an electrical conductor. The device comprises a magnetic circuit coupled to an electrical conductor. The magnetic circuit has an air gap and a magnetic field sensitive component disposed in the air gap to measure a magnetic field generated by the electrical conductor. A control core has a control winding configured to control an effective length of the air gap when the control winding is energized. A magnetic shield at least partially encloses the magnetic circuit, the magnetic field sensitive component and the control core.

  • Patent number: 7541799
    Abstract: A device for measuring a current flowing in an electrical conductor having a sensor disposed in the region of the electrical conductor for measuring the magnetic field surrounding the electrical conductor. The sensor includes a magnetic circuit having a first and a second section. A magnetizing device for the saturation of the second section and an evaluation device for calculating the current flowing through the electrical conductor in dependence on measured values B(P0), B(P1), B(P2), B(P4), B(P4+), B(P4?) of the magnetic field surrounding the electrical conductor and in dependence on the applicable magnetization of the second section is also provided. A method for operating the device is also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 7332903
    Abstract: A device is provided for measuring a current flowing in an electrical conductor with a magnetic circuit for coupling to the electrical conductor. The magnetic circuit has an air gap, and a magnetic field sensitive component is disposed in the air gap. The magnetic field sensitive component measures the magnetic field generated by the electrical conductor. Two control cores are disposed in the air gap to control an effective size of the air gap. The control cores each have a control winding for magnetic saturation of the respective control core to control the effective length of the air gap. The magnetic field sensitive component is disposed between the control cores.
