Harmonics: Cause of Pollution of the Electrical Power Systems

Posted: 24 Jan 2011 08:40 PM PST

Harmonics, in today's scenario, is the first and fore most cause of pollution in the electrical power systems. Now having known this, let us now try to understand what harmonics are. Harmonics are the waveforms, that have frequencies in multiples of the fundamental frequency. For example, the fundamental frequency of our power system is 50Hz. [...]

Current sensor for DC motor

Posted: 24 Jan 2011 06:45 AM PST

Hello All,
I am looking for current sensor to measure the consumed current by DC motor by using data acquisition card. I was thinking to use small resistance or Hall effect current sensor. My motor details are:
Nominal voltage= 42V,
Starting current = 20.3A
max. continuous current = 1.95A

The data acquisition card acquires max. voltage for +/-10V

My question are:
1- What is the best (using small resistance or using hall effect current sensor)?
2- Should I consider that maximum current is the starting current or max. continuous current before selecting the sensor?

Many thanks.
