ABSTRACT:
An apparatus senses signals on conductors and includes a ceramic sensor body. A plurality of antenna elements are formed in the ceramic sensor body. Each antenna element includes a conductor sensing end and forms an array having a substantially planar face that is to be placed adjacent to conductors to be sensed. Each of the antenna elements further comprises a central electrode and a surrounding shield electrode spaced from the central electrode. A signal processor is connected to each antenna element and receives the signal output from each antenna element and processes the received signals for determining the presence of signals passing to the conductors. The central electrode and surrounding shield electrode are formed of a hardened, conductive paste received within the ceramic sensor body.
