The (electrical) current sensor can be used in a variety of physics experiments, such as:

Series and parallel circuits
Studying battery life
Voltage / Current relationships
Electrical component characteristics e.g. a light bulb, a diode, a light dependent resistor
Capacitor discharge, charge and energy stored
Ohm’s law

A ‘P4272-1K BT sensor cable, single’ is required to connect the sensor to the interface.
Please check whether you already have this cable in your stock.
