Fluke has introduced two true-RMS clamp meters with electric field sensing scheme branded FieldSense. They are Fluke 377 and 378. “Technicians are able to simultaneously obtain accurate voltage and ...

The measurement of current with a clamp meter is very simple. The meter probe must be clamped around the wire of the tested circuit and the knob must be set appropriately, depending on the current ...

Pulse Electronics Corp. has unveiled a 50 Hz/60 Hz, di/dt AC current sensor that can be clamped onto an existing solid conductor without having to disconnect the conductor. The PA3828NL clamp-on ...

TDK Corp. has expanded its CCT series of clamp AC current sensors with two new types that are rated for 300 A and 80 A. The new sensors are designed for use in the power-distribution panels in a ...

Fluke once again has solar power engineers in mind with a pair of instruments, both true-RMS, CAT III and rated to 1,500V: the 283 FC digital multimeter and the a283 FC wireless ac and dc current ...

If you want to measure AC or DC current with an oscilloscope, a current clamp is a great way to do it. The clamp surrounds the wire, so you don’t need to break the connection to take your measurements ...

Recently, I’ve been working on a solar off-grid monitoring system. In the system are a few split-core Hall effect sensors to monitor DC current in the solar panel current, the battery charge current, ...

Inrush current effect is common in electric motors. Sometimes, in case of ill-designed electrical wiring systems, switching on the motor may activate the fuse. It is caused by the inrush current – ...
