Insert For Measuring Current In Conductors Within An Electrical Enclosure

US Patent:
6291986, Sep 18, 2001
Filed:
Jun 15, 1999
Appl. No.:
9/334016
Inventors:
Sheldon J. Sorensen - Cologne MN
International Classification:
G01R 104, G01R 106, G01R 1900
US Classification:
324156
Abstract:
A conduit apparatus for an electrical enclosure that allows safe, convenient access for current measurement of circuits therein is provided. The conduit apparatus has one or more non-magnetic conduits extending therethrough. The conduits, in turn, each house a conductor. The conduits are accessible from outside the enclosure. By placing a hook-on type ammeter over the conduit, the current in the conductor may be measured. In one embodiment, the conduit apparatus is a component that mounts within a load center or other electrical enclosure. In another embodiment, the conduit apparatus is an integral portion of such an enclosure.
