Abstract
A relay situated in series between an AC line source and an AC load has a core conductor connected with the fixed N.O. contact, so that load current flows axially through the core of the actuator coil. Alternatively, the fixed N.C. contact may be connected with the core conductor. A plate armature with leaf springs can achieve linear axial action. A sensor connected to leads of a winding of the actuator coil picks up a an induced voltage that is representative of the current supplied to the load. This provides a simple arrangement for monitoring for current level and can be used for measuring power factor or ΔΦ at the load device. In a three phase embodiment, phase imbalance can be detected.
