Features
What is a Hall effect DC current sensor?
Named after Edwin Hall, the Hall effect is a common method of measuring the direction and intensity of a magnetic field. When electricity travels through a wire, a magnetic field is generated. A Hall effect current sensor measures the strength of the magnetic field to determine how much current is flowing through the wire. Hall effect sensors are paired with DC power meters to provide accurate measurements in renewable energy, transportation, power distribution, and other DC applications.
