    Abstract: A Wireless Clamp-on Current Probe and an embedded system which includes a digital RF transceiver allows for remote test and measurement equipment to receive data from a current probe without regard to cabling issues such as size, physical wear, weight, cost, electrical noise, losses and more. Such a current probe may be used in environments and situations not previously explored. The probe may be controlled and queried by wired serial communication means or by means of an integrated radio frequency (RF) transceiver. The RF transceiver may utilize a proprietary communication protocol or a standard wireless communication protocol such as ZigBee, Bluetooth or any of the IEEE communication standards.
