Abstract:Taking measurement by using Rogowski coil is the main method for high voltage pulse. B-Dot is a non-invasive measurement probe of pulse current, which bears many advantages in the measurement on the discharge circuit with compact structure and strictly specified parameters compared with general Rogowski coils. Nevertheless,the modeling of B-Dot and its calibration process are closely related to the practical application environments,and there are also strict requirements on the current intensity, the researches on its applications in kA level short pulse current measurement are seldom reported. This work aims to the preliminary exploration research on application of B-Dot in kA short pulse current. Based on analyzing the principle of kA level short pulse current measurement by using B-Dot, micro B-Dot probes are designed and tested on kA-μs level pulse current. The test results accord well to the theory analysis.
