Two types of fibre-optic current sensor have been developed and successfully tested in the laboratory: magnetostrictive jacketing materials and a heating effect, to produce a phase shift in the optical fibre. A ruggedised all-fibre interferometer powered by a diode laser was used to detect the phase changes induced by the electrical current.
