Are current sensors connected in series or in parallel?

Current sensors are typically connected in series in a circuit. This is because current sensors need to measure the current flowing through them, and for accurate measurement, they need to be connected to the circuit, synchronized with the current in the circuit. If used in parallel, the current sensor cannot accurately obtain the actual current value in the circuit. Of course, the specific usage method also needs to be determined according to the device requirements and the specific design of the circuit. In short, to correctly measure and display the current value, the current sensor should be connected in series in the circuit.
