2. Current clamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_clamp

   An electrical meter with integral AC current clamp is known as a clamp meter, clamp-on ammeter, tong tester, or colloquially as an amp clamp. A clamp meter measures the vector sum of the currents flowing in all the conductors passing through the probe, which depends on the phase relationship of the currents. Only one conductor is normally ...

3. Current sensing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_sensing

   Fluxgate sensors or saturable inductor current sensors work on the same measurement principle as Hall-effect-based current sensors: the magnetic field created by the primary current to be measured is detected by a specific sensing element. The design of the saturable inductor current sensor is similar to that of a closed-loop Hall-effect ...

4. Clamper (electronics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clamper_(electronics)

   A negative clamp is the opposite of this—this clamp outputs a purely negative waveform from an input signal. A bias voltage between the diode and ground offsets the output voltage by that amount. For example, an input signal of peak value 5 V (V INpeak = 5 V) is applied to a positive clamp with a bias of 3 V (V BIAS = 3 V), the peak output ...

5. Shunt (electrical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shunt_(electrical)

   Some alternatives to shunts can provide isolation from the high voltage by not directly connecting the meter to the high voltage circuit. Examples of devices that can provide this isolation are Hall effect current sensors and current transformers (see clamp meters). Current shunts are considered more accurate and cheaper than Hall effect devices.

6. Electronic test equipment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_test_equipment

   A multimeter with a built in clamp facility. Pushing the large button at the bottom opens the lower jaw of the clamp, allowing the clamp to be placed around a conductor (wire). Depending on sensor, some can measure both AC and DC current. RF probe; Signal tracer

7. Rogowski coil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogowski_coil

   The integrator is lossy, so the Rogowski coil does not have a response down to DC; neither does a conventional current transformer (see Néel effect coils for DC). However, they can measure very slow changing currents with frequency components down to 1 Hz and less. [3] Constant DC current cannot be measured.
