The purpose of the equipment is to determine how much current is flowing to a circuit. In this case measure the current flowing to a home or industrial facility. This is done either by digital reading (light sensor) or by current transformer probe (clamp probe). This allows measurement of the current in a conductor without the need to make physical contact with it, or to disconnect it for insertion through the probe.
Robosavvy performed the following tasks:
• PCB Shield design according to specifications
• Design of light sensor, including electrical part and mechanical housing
• Mechanical design of a protective metal sheet
• Manufacturing and assembly of electronic boards – PCB shield + PCB light sensor
• Manufacturing of the metal box
• Design of light sensors housing
• Install the client software – configuration of Beaglebone Black
• Supply of clamp probes for current measurement
• Final assembly of the equipment: metal housing with the Beaglebone board, PCB shield, button and power plug
• Assembly of light sensors with soldered cable on the sensor and crimped RJ11 plug.
• Testing of the full equipment
The equipment to be supplied consists of a kit with the following components:
1x – PCB Shield for Beaglebone black
