Abstract

The invention relates to a method and a device for detecting a current in a measuring path, the current in said measuring path corresponding to a current in a power path. An electric current is detected by a current measuring instrument in the measuring path, while simultaneously part of the electric current is conducted parallel to the current measuring instrument by a bypass device, in order to reduce the load on the current measuring instrument.
