The proposed device is built using a PZT rectangular plate ceramic with one fixed end. A permanent magnet is mounted to the other end of the plate. The interaction between a magnetic field (B) and the device creates a mechanical vibration. Due to the piezoelectric effect, a voltage is presented at the output terminals of the device. This output is proportional to the magnitude of the current flowing in the wire. We present experimental results of the AC 60Hz current measurement on the 15-110A. The good sensitivity of the device (approximately 20mV/A) for a distance of 1.5cm between device and the magnetic B-field source must be highlighted.
