2. Current sensing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_sensing

   In electrical engineering, current sensing is any one of several techniques used to measure electric current. The measurement of current ranges from picoamps to tens of thousands of amperes. The selection of a current sensing method depends on requirements such as magnitude, accuracy, bandwidth, robustness, cost, isolation or size. The current ...

3. Hall effect sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall_effect_sensor

   Hall sensors are used for proximity sensing, positioning, speed detection, and current sensing applications [1] and are common in industrial and consumer applications. Hundreds of millions of Hall sensor integrated circuits (ICs) are sold each year [ 2 ] by about 50 manufacturers, with the global market around a billion dollars .

4. Residual-current device - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual-current_device

   A residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) [a] is an electrical safety device, more specifically a form of Earth-leakage circuit breaker, that interrupts an electrical circuit when the current passing through line and neutral conductors of a circuit is not equal (the term residual relating to the imbalance), therefore ...

5. Recloser - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recloser

   In electric power distribution, automatic circuit reclosers (ACRs) are a class of switchgear designed for use on overhead electricity distribution networks to detect and interrupt transient faults. Also known as reclosers or autoreclosers , ACRs are essentially rated circuit breakers with integrated current and voltage sensors and a protection ...

6. Electronic switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_switch

   Hall switches are a type of Hall sensor that combine the analog Hall effect with threshold detection to produce a magnetically-operated switch. The opto-isolator uses light from an LED controlled by a current which is received by a phototransistor to switch a galvanically-isolated circuit.

7. Inductive sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_sensor

   An inductive sensor is a device that uses the principle of electromagnetic induction to detect or measure objects. An inductor develops a magnetic field when an electric current flows through it; alternatively, a current will flow through a circuit containing an inductor when the magnetic field through it changes. This effect can be used to ...
