Abstract: A sensor for measuring current flow includes a housing containing a power generation circuit and a current measurement circuit. The sensor is entirely self-contained and is non-invasively attachable to a conductor. The sensor is self-powered using energy harvested by the power generation circuit. The current measurement circuit allows for continuous, uninterrupted measurement of at least one property related to the flow of current through the conductor. The sensor wirelessly transmits data related to the measured current flow to a computing device. The sensor may be used with other similar sensors to form a wireless sensor network that monitors one or more properties related to the flow of current through one or more conductors within a system.
