Suparule
has developed a new sensor technology which will enable
the measurement of a extremely low currents in conductors
which are subject to very large current pulses, e.g. power
lines subjected to lightning strikes.
The sensor is based on the existing SMF Technology PMCS
sensor, consisting of a number of planar magnetic coils
arranged in a circle around the conductor being measured.
Innovative methods for increasing the signal pickup to
measure currents less than 0.1mA have been added, as well
as a method for distribution of the high voltages caused
by large current spikes. The sensor is housed in a metal
shield which filters out the high frequency current spikes
associated with lightning strikes.
