Abstract

A zero-phase sequence current detector have three circular cores provided around three phases overhead lines of AC power lines, three magnetoptic sensors provided on respective cores for detecting currents flowing on respective power lines, and a processing circuit containing an adding circuit for adding outputs of the magnetoptic sensors and a compensation processing circuit for canceling erroneous components due to the differences of the temperature characteristics among the magnetoptic sensors.
