Abstract
Systems and methods for measuring current with shielded conductors are provided. One system includes a first wire within shielding, wherein the first wire is connected between a high voltage source and a filament of an x-ray system. The system also includes a second wire within shielding, wherein the second wire is connected between the high voltage source and the x-ray system and the shielding of the first and second wires is at a high voltage potential of the x-ray system. The system further includes a measurement resistor at a high voltage potential, wherein the measurement resistor is connected between the shielding and one of the first or second wires.
