There is no limit to creativity, and the instrument is invented. Today we introduce a national invention patent for granting a wide-range energy meter based on Hall sensors. The patent was filed by Wasion Group Co., Ltd. and was granted a notice of authorization on July 18, 2017.

Description

The invention relates to a wide-range electric energy meter, in particular to a wide-range electric energy meter based on a Hall sensor.

Background of the invention

Electromagnetic current transformers are commonly used in electric energy meters as current sensing units. Due to their magnetic saturation and limited bandwidth, it is difficult to accurately detect high frequency components and DC currents. With the popularization of non-linear devices such as power electronics in the power grid , electromagnetic current transformers have been unable to meet the needs of the market.

The Hall sensor is a wideband current sensor that can be used to detect various AC and DC magnetic fields. However, since the dynamic range of the open-loop Hall sensor is generally narrow, the detectable magnetic field has a small variation range, and is generally only used in the case where the motor control, the Hall switch, etc. are not required for the detection accuracy and the dynamic range, and the electric energy meter The current detection unit requires a wide bandwidth and a wide dynamic range. In terms of the current specification of a common energy meter 5 (60) A, the current detection dynamic range is as high as 1200:1, and the dynamic range of the general open-loop Hall sensor can only be detected. 200:1, can not meet the practical requirements, and the measurement accuracy will be affected under strong magnetic interference.
