Abstract

Rogowski coil is a kind of high-precision current measuring tool, mainly used to measure Alternating Current (AC). It has been widely used in power systems, electronic equipment monitoring, and high current measurement. This paper systematically reviews the existing types of Rogowski coils. There are three commonly used Rogowski coils: traditional rigid Rogowski coils, flexible Rogowski coils, and PCB (Printed Circuit Board) Rogowski coils. Rogowski coils can be classified into self-integrating Rogowski coils and external-integrating Rogowski coils according to different integration methods. According to the different skeleton materials used, Rogowski coils can be classified into annular air-core Rogowski coils for measuring large amplitude currents and magnetic core Rogowski coils for measuring small amplitude currents. This paper mainly introduces the traditional air-core Rogowski coils, flexible Rogowski coils, and PCB Rogowski coils, and analyzes their basic principles, structural characteristics, and application scenarios. The advantages and limitations of each type of Rogowski coil in specific applications are further discussed.
