What are the different types of current sensors?

There are various types of current sensors, mainly including the following:

1. Hall current sensor: Based on the Hall effect, it features fast response speed and high measurement accuracy.
2. Fluxgate current sensor: Made using the fluxgate principle, it is suitable for large current measurement.
3. Rogowski coil current sensor: It measures current by detecting the magnetic field around the conductor and has good linear response characteristics.
4. Current transformer: Often used for current measurement and protection in power systems.

In addition, there are optical current sensors based on optical principles. These sensors do not have a fixed standard length and can be customized according to actual needs, such as 20 centimeters long or manufactured according to specific Specification. When selecting a current sensor, factors such as measurement range, accuracy, and application environment should be considered.
