Abstract
A current sensor is for determining the level of the current of a conductor of a low-voltage circuit. In an embodiment, it includes a current transformer including a magnetic core. The magnetic core is an annular core having a core inner diameter, a middle diameter and a core outer diameter. The annular core is wound with a secondary winding, including an inner opening with an inner diameter and an outer circumference with an outer diameter. The secondary winding supplies the circuit with electrical energy. The wound annular core is configured such that the difference between the middle diameter as the minuend and the inner diameter as the subtrahend is 0.5 to 0.6 times smaller than the difference between the outer diameter as the minuend and the inner diameter as the subtrahend, to achieve an optimum for supplying energy and determining the level of the current in connection with the circuit.
