Abstract
A measuring transformer comprises a ferromagnetic core having a central branch. The central branch comprises at least one unit that is surrounded in part by an electrical conductor in the form of a U. Each unit of the central branch of the core has two outer air gaps and one or more central air gaps. Each outer air gap has length, that when measured in the longitudinal direction of the unit, is longer than the sum of the lengths of the one or more central air gaps. At least one magnetic sensor is contained in a central air gap of each unit and the central branch includes a total of at least two magnetic sensors. The measuring transformer is especially well suited for use in multifunction measuring instruments.
