It uses a current transformer to measure AC current flowing through a wire without needing to cut or splice the circuit — simply clamp it around the conductor. The sensor outputs an analogue voltage proportional to the detected current.\n\nPart of the Octopus electronic brick series, it features a standard 3-pin interface for plug-and-play connection to Arduino boards via sensor shields.\n\nKey Features\n\n\nNon-Invasive Measurement – Clamp-on design measures AC current without breaking the circuit\n\nWide Detection Range – Suitable for a variety of AC current sensing applications\n\nFast Response – High sensitivity with stable, long-life operation\n\nSimple Interface – 3-pin analogue output (Signal, VCC, GND) for easy integration\n\nOctopus Brick Format – Compatible with Arduino sensor shields and Freaduino boards\n\n\nSpecifications\n\n\nOperating Voltage – 5 V\n\nInterface Type – Analogue\n\nPin Definition – 1: Signal, 2: VCC, 3: GND\n\nSensor Type – Current transformer (TA12-100)\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nAC current monitoring and energy metering projects\nArduino-based power measurement systems\nHome automation current sensing\nEducational electronics projects\n","vendor":"ElecFreaks","product_type":"physical","in_stock":false,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":4619,"title":"Default Title","sku":"EF-EF04015","price":12.17,"compare_at_price":0.0,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":false,"available_quantity":0,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
