With the new SCT current converters, Beckhoff Automation completes the power measurement chain that now ranges from measuring physical values to transmitting captured data to the cloud. Continuous, ...

In switched-mode power supplies (SMPS), magnetic components, namely inductors and transformers, play critical roles. Much of the SMPS design process relies on component specifications and simulation ...

Current sensing is used to perform two essential circuit functions. First, it measures “how much” current is flowing in a circuit; information that may be used for power management in a DC/DC power ...

Omicron has introduced a way to test current transformers at all lifecycle stages by using a testing method called "the modeling concept". The "traditional" way of testing a current transformer is to ...

All electrical installations, devices and machines rely on the quality of electrical insulation. A failure of insulation usually leads to a failure of the system in which it is used, often with ...

RS Components has introduced a range of own-brand (RS Pro) current transformers which includes more than 100 devices. “These RS Pro components target applications including process control, motor ...

Fluxgate current sensors have emerged as a robust technology for the measurement of both alternating and direct currents, harnessing the non-linear magnetic characteristics of ferromagnetic materials.

If a product uses power, then power consumption and power quality measurements must be made as part of product design and test. These measurements are essential to optimize product design, comply with ...

Current transformer (CT) saturation presents a critical challenge in the realm of power system protection and automation. Under fault conditions, the magnetic core of a CT may become saturated, ...

Current sensing is used to perform two essential circuit functions. First, it is used to measure “how much” current is flowing in a circuit, which may be used to make decisions about turning off ...
