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. Relay - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relay

   A relay Electromechanical relay principle Electromechanical relay schematic showing a control coil, four pairs of normally open and one pair of normally closed contacts An automotive-style miniature relay with the dust cover taken off. A relay is an electrically operated switch. It consists of a set of input terminals for a single or multiple ...

4. Earth-leakage circuit breaker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth-leakage_protection...

   Disadvantages of voltage-sensing devices over current-sensing: A wire break in the fault to load section, or in the earth to ground section, will disable operation of the devices. Requirement of an additional third wire from the load to the devices. Separate devices cannot be grounded individually.

5. 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 ...

6. Solid-state relay - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-state_relay

   Solid state relay with green LED Solid state contactor PCB mount solid-state DIL relay. A solid state relay (SSR) is an electronic switching device that switches on or off when an external voltage (AC or DC) is applied across its control terminals.

7. Hall effect sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall_effect_sensor

   The device has three terminals. A sensor voltage is applied across two terminals and the third provides a voltage proportional to the current being sensed. This has several advantages; no additional resistance (a shunt, required for the most common current sensing method) needs to be inserted in the primary circuit. Also, the voltage present on ...
