What is are Inductive Transducer?

Inductive Transducer Definition

An inductive transducer is defined as a device that measures variations in a quantity through changes in inductance.

Operation Principles

The operation of inductive transducers involves three main principles: changes in self-inductance, mutual inductance, and the production of eddy currents.

Change of Self Inductance of Inductive Transducer

N = number of turns.

R = reluctance of the magnetic circuit.

Measurement Calibration

The calibration of inductive transducers enables accurate measurement of quantities such as displacement.

Applications

Inductive transducers are extensively used in proximity sensors for accurate position and motion detection.

Practical Usage

These transducers are critical in industrial applications for metal detection, ensuring parts presence, and counting items.

Application of Auto-Reclosing Residual Current Protective Devices in Lightning Protection for Communication Power Supplies

Application of Auto-Reclosing Residual Current Protective Devices in Lightning Protection for Communication Power Supplies

1. Power Interruption Problems Caused by RCD False Tripping During Lightning StrikesA typical communication power supply circuit is shown in Figure 1. A residual current device (RCD) is installed at the power supply input terminal. The RCD primarily provides protection against electrical equipment leakage currents to ensure personal safety, while surge protective devices (SPDs) are installed on power supply branches to protect against lightning intrusions. When lightning strikes occur, the senso

Reclosing Charge Time: Why Does Reclosing Require Charging? What Effects Does Charging Time Have?

Reclosing Charge Time: Why Does Reclosing Require Charging? What Effects Does Charging Time Have?

1. Function and Significance of Reclosing ChargingReclosing is a protective measure in power systems. After faults such as short circuits or circuit overloads occur, the system isolates the faulty circuit and then restores normal operation through reclosing. The function of reclosing is to ensure continuous operation of the power system, improving its reliability and safety.Before performing reclosing, the circuit breaker must be charged. For high-voltage circuit breakers, the charging time is g
