    Abstract: A measurement device for measuring properties of a metal sheet processed in a rolling mill, including: an inspection coil set including a transmitter coil and a receiver coil, the transmitter coil being configured to apply a time-varying magnetic field to the metal sheet, and the receiver coil being configured to detect a magnetic field transient produced from the metal sheet. The property of the metal sheet is derivable from the magnetic field transient. A correction coil set, for detecting a spatial deviation of the metal sheet from a reference plane, each correction coil being connectable to a capacitor to form a respective resonance circuit having a resonance frequency. The correction coils are resonated at the respective resonance frequency. A shift in the resonance frequency in the presence of the metal sheet is detectable and the spatial deviation is derivable from the shifts.

    Abstract: A circuit breaker is connected between an input supply line and an output supply line of a low-voltage electrical system and comprises a test signal transceiver and evaluator. The test signal transceiver comprises a first transceiver section being capacitively or inductively coupled, at a first coupling point, with the input supply line, and a second transceiver section being inductively coupled, at a second coupling point, with the input or output supply line. One of the first and second transceiver section is a test signal transmitter configured to generate and inject an AC test signal into the input or output supply line, and the other one of the first and second transceiver section is a test signal receiver configured to receive the test signal from the input or output supply line. A test signal evaluator is configured to determine the state of the circuit breaker from the received test signal.
