Summit Technology’s HA1000 Current Probe measures from 1 Arms to 1000 Arms AC.
Probes such as the HA1000 are excellent choices to use with PowerSight because they support all the accuracy specifications of the product. For instance, the HA1000 has an accuracy of 0.5% whereas many probes on the market have an accuracy of 2-3%. Also, the HA1000 maintains its accuracy for frequencies up to 20,000 Hz. This allows accurate current and power readings of distorted waveforms, accurate readings of harmonics, and the measurement of current transients that other probes would not even detect.
Phase shift is also an important probe characteristic. The HA1000 has less than 1/2 degree of phase shift across the frequency range when measuring currents above 50 amps and just 1.5 degrees at 5 amps. This means that instantaneous measurements of power are highly accurate, regardless of the waveform shape. The phase shift characteristics of most other probes on the market are not this good. This results in erroneous power and cost measurements and distorted waveforms. Please Note: To diminish phase shift when measuring small currents, it is advisable to clamp onto multiple "turns" of the same conductor in order to increase the effective current being sensed.
