A fast-response direct-current current transformer based on multi-sensor fusion is provided and includes: a magnetic modulator, a current correction module, an excitation transformer, an alternating current detection and filtering circuit, a phase-sensitive demodulation and filtering system, a PI controller, and a power amplifier. The current correction module measures a primary current and obtain a feed-forward signal, outputs a false balance state configured to control a magnetic core to quickly exit or avoid entering magnetic saturation after amplifying the feed-forward signal and a PI control signal, and keeps output of the magnetic modulator stable. The magnetic modulator and Hall current sensors are fused in the disclosure, such that the possibility of failure due to a false balance problem caused by saturation of a magnetic core is reduced. After the false balance is generated, the magnetic core may be controlled to quickly exit a magnetic saturation state through a feed-forward output current.

A flux gate current sensor includes a magnetic core, a measurement winding, an excitation circuit arranged to generate a digital excitation signal, an acquisition circuit arranged to acquire an analog measurement voltage from the terminals of the measurement winding and to produce a digital measurement signal, a demagnetization servocontrol circuit arranged to use the digital measurement signal to produce a digital demagnetization signal for compensating magnetic flux produced by the current that is to be measured, a summing circuit arranged to sum the digital excitation signal and the digital demagnetization signal so as to obtain a digital injection signal, and an injection circuit arranged to produce an analog excitation current from the digital injection signal and to inject the analog excitation current into the measurement winding.

The line power and neutral conductors for a circuit interrupter such as a miniature circuit breaker, using ground fault sensing via a current transformer, are arranged as a rigid conductor formed from a flat plate and surrounding and holding an insulated flexible conductor when passing through the Ground Fault Interrupter current transformer. The rigid conductor can provide a shaped current path to maximize the effectiveness of the current transformer.

A security method for monitoring an optical module and a three-dimensional sensor using the same apply electromagnetic induction to the three-dimensional sensor to monitor the optical module and a light source module. Two inductive coils corresponding to each other are arranged on the light source module and the optical module. An alternative current is inputted to one of the inductive coils and another of the inductive coils generates an inductive current. The value of the inductive current is continuously detected. When the value of the inductive current varies, the abnormality of the optical module is determined to shut down the light source module, thereby completing the security mechanism of the three-dimensional sensor.

A magnetic core is electromagnetically coupled to two conductors that allow an AC current to flow through. An exciter is configured to supply a winding with an excitation current that is an alternating current. A current detector is configured to detect a current flowing through the winding. A DC component detector is configured to detect a DC component level from the current detected with the current detector. Two contact elements are respectively disposed along the two conductors. A discrimination controller is configured to: turn the two contact elements on when the DC component level detected with the DC component detector is less than or equal to a threshold; turn the two contact elements off when the DC component level detected with the DC component detector is greater than the threshold; and turn the two contact elements off in de-energized condition.
