Energy Monitoring with Split Core Current Sensors
Eco-conscious individuals are becoming more concerned that they might be consuming too much electricity and are significantly increasing their carbon footprint. While energy is essential for households and business operations, using just the right amount of power can go a long way to sustain life and not add more to the things that resulted in climate change. To do this, people should start monitoring their energy consumption as this is useful when it comes to planning how to effectively manage future power intake.
Benefits of Using Power Sensing Technology
Without power sensing devices like current sensors, inefficiencies in almost all industries would be more difficult to keep under control. Here are three key benefits of using power sensing technology:
Important Safety Measures for Working with Electricity
When working with electricity, safety can never be stressed enough. You’ve probably already been advised to perform the following safety measures when you went through training with your company. However, there is nothing wrong with taking a quick refresher course. With that in mind, here are safety measures to always remember when working with electricity:
The Advantages of a Flexible Current Transformer
If you’re an electrical engineer, a current transformer is one of the most invaluable tools in your arsenal. It really is the Robin to your Batman. However, if you’re still using a traditional current transformer, you’re missing out on a lot of benefits.
Ease of Shipping
As part of a current transformer distributor that receives orders from all over the world, I have sent out a lot of different packages to many different locales. A good portion of my day includes handling the packaging and preparing of shipping labels for orders.
Preconfigured, Plug-n-Play eGauge DC Monitoring Bundle, Up to 30 DC Measurements
We preconfigure up to 30 channels on the eGauge Pro, or up to 15 channels on the eGauge Core, to monitor DC current or DC voltage or AC current or AC voltage or any combination of these. Aim Dynamics manufacturers both the Hall Effect current sensors, the DC voltage sensors and all the conversion equipment needed to be fully compatible with the eGauge meters. The system comes with pre-installed monitoring software (no monthly fee). The 30 data points you monitor can be stored up to 30 years!
Why Current Sensing is Important
From your palm-sized smartphone to your two-door refrigerator, electrical appliances come in all shapes and sizes. Naturally, different devices need differing amounts of electricity so they can function properly—and more importantly, not get damaged from receiving too much power.
