Current

A current sensor is a device that detects and converts current to an easily measurable output voltage, which is proportional to the current through the measured path. There are a wide variety of sensors, and each sensor is suitable for a specific current range and environmental condition. Among these sensors, a current sensing resistor is the most commonly used. It can be considered a current-to-voltage converter, where inserting a resistor into the current path, the current is converted to voltage in a linear way. The technology used by the current sensor is important because different sensors can have different characteristics for a variety of applications.

Digital Voltmeter Ammeter

While a DMM is great for a quick check, a panel-mount current and voltmeter is handy when you need to constantly monitor a system. Battery-backed systems can be quickly diagnosed by checking the overall system voltage, run times can be calculated based on the instantaneous current consumption rates. For all those times and more, it's just super handy to have a meter available. Proto-Pic has digital Voltmeter Ammeter 30V 10A which is long lasting product.

Non-Invasive Current Sensor

Non-invasive current sensor (also known as a "split core current transformer") can be clamped around the supply line of an electrical load to tell you how much current is passing through it. It does this by acting as an inductor and responding to the magnetic field around a current-carrying conductor.
