Evaluation of Flexible Rogowski Coil Performances In Power Frequency Applications

This paper investigates the effects of some influence quantities on the measurement of power frequency sinusoidal currents by means of flexible Rogowski coil sensors. The analysis is carried out through a numerical model, which is specifically developed and allows both the prediction of the circuital and coil parameter effects and the improvement of the coil design. The estimate of the measurement uncertainty associated with the on-site use of a flexible and openable Rogowski coil is finally given by assuming relatively controlled operating conditions
