Utility power meters often must rely on a current transformer for polyphase applications. Current transformers have drawbacks: They are relatively expensive, require additional copper wiring, and can ...

Sunnyvale, CA – A new chipset from Maxim Integrated Products reduces the bill of materials (BOM) cost of a polyphase energy meter. The MAXQ3108 and DS8102 together replace three high-cost current ...

[Renaud] built a AC power meter from scratch. While commercial power meters like the Kill A Watt are available [Renaud’s] build gives an interesting insight into the methods used. At the heart of ...
