Abstract

A circuit which compensates for interference signals when monitoring conditions such as overcurrents and the like in a larger network. The circuit includes a current-signal branch and a compensating branch, the latter fed with an interference voltage and containing a variable gain amplifier. Both branches of the circuit are coupled to a signal superimposing element in the form of a summing amplifier, the output of which is applied to a polarity comparator. The polarity comparator, which is three-state device, forms a portion of a feedback network for controlling the gain of the variable gain amplifier.
