Two of the most important components of a current sensor are the core and shield used to concentrate magnetic flux and protect the sensor from external magnetic fields. CTS provides both in various sizes and materials along with add-on features to make installation easy.

When developing a current sensor, it is important to consider the choice of components that will work within the sensor. Dimensions, laminations, shapes, and materials can make or break the strength of the sensor when it comes to the design.
The core, also known as the concentrator, is a crucial component of a current sensor that channels the magnetic flux generated by the electric current. At the center of the core is an air gap, where a sensor—typically a Hall sensor—is positioned to detect the magnetic field precisely.

A shield protects the core from interference by physically blocking the external magnetic flux. Being that a core is a crucial part of the system, it would be undesirable to have the system data interfered by external magnetic frequencies.
