ABSTRACT:
A self-contained current sensor unit is integrated with a standard circuit breaker as an attachment to the circuit breaker that requires minimal modification of the circuit breaker and that becomes an extension of the case of the circuit breaker. The current sensor unit includes a magnetic structure with a programmable Hall Effect device and may include a power supply, a Hall Effect voltage regulator, and an output signal conditioner.
