Embodiment Construction

[0023] Current sensing based on fiber optic current sensors is attractive for monitoring, control and protection of transformers and power distribution systems in smart grids. Compared to some existing current sensors, it has the advantage of being able to separate the sensor head from the electronic processing unit at different locations, and thus does not require any power at the sensor head, making it safe for high voltage applications. Embodiments of the fiber optic current sensor can be configured to achieve other advantages, including small size, light weight, immunity to electromagnetic interference, low power consumption, immunity to current saturation, or other effects. Fiber optic coil-based current sensors using the Faraday effect in the fiber have been widely used in high voltage applications, where the fiber optic coil is wound around a current-carrying conductor. Such fiber optic coil based current sensors are generally more expensive and require cable breakage t...

Abstract

The invention relates to a Faraday current sensor and a Faraday temperature sensor. This patent application discloses techniques and devices for sensing or measuring current and / or temperature based on photonic sensing technology. The optical current sensor head is positioned at or near the current carrying conductor such that a magnetic field associated with the current exists at the Faraday material and the optical detection unit detects light from the Faraday material to determine the magnitude of the current. The optical temperature sensor head is located at or near a location such that the temperature at the temperature sensitive Faraday material is reflected by the optical polarization rotation that is detected to determine the temperature.
