Abstract
A detector for detecting at least one electric quantity in an electric conductor, and an overhead network for distributing electricity. The detector includes a frame on which a mechanism is fixed, the mechanism including a magnetic toroid, divided into two branches rotatable around an axis defined by the frame, between a separated position and a position closed around the electric conductor, a current sensor, divided into two branches rotatable around an axis defined by the frame, between a separated position and a position closed around the electric conductor, the current sensor performing an AC current measurement, a force transmitting element transmitting a rotational force to the magnetic toroid and the current sensor, the element being provided with at least one portion to receive the conductor by bearing, and a first clamp including two clamp arms, and a second clamp including two clamp arms.
