Product description: Gravity - analog AC current sensor - up to 5 A - DFRobot SEN0287
Analog AC current sensor from DFRobot with a 1 m long probe . It allows you to measure the current flowing in the wire without the need to cut it - the measurement is made through the insulation of a single wire. The measurement range is from 0 A to 5 A. Additionally, the module has a Gravity connector, which streamlines the process of connecting to development boards such as Arduino.
Product compatible with Arduino!
A detailed user guide is available on the manufacturer's website, which includes, among others, instructions for connecting the elements and sample program code.
