ADE7880 - Rogowski coil not working

Hello,

I designed a circuit for energy monitoring using CT and Rogowski , this is done by  closing and opening appropriate jumpers across burden resistor, fig shown below

I tested the circuit for Rogowski with all jumpers open,  and on the software side I turned ON integrator by 

// SPIWrite2Bytes(DICOEFF,0xFF8000);
SPIWrite2Bytes(CONFIG,0x0001);  // integrator on

But the output is not correct

IC is not changing .

But in the case of CT, it's working i closed jumpers for CT as mentioned in the ADE7880_userguide.

what is the issue with Rogowski, 
please Help.

  • You need to remove/ disconnect the burden resistor. The Rogowski coil can't drive a load that low. 

    Dave

  • Yes, i didnt soldered burden resister, i have seen similar questions about that. 

  • Are you using the same calibration for ct and Rogowski coil?   You will need  separate calibration for each sensor. 

    The amps/volt  for each sensor are different. 

    Dave

  • calibration needs to be done after all the basic configurations are made for each sensor such as enabling or disabling the integrator

  • Hi,   from the debugging, I found that the issue is before the calibration, ie the Current value IC is always "8388607" (integrator ON) with and without connecting Rogowski cable, 

    my code for Reg config is

  • Please verify input ckt is configured like this

    I don't see the run bit being set in the code above. you could be doing in somewhere else just verifying the run bit is set. 

    What is the state of the psm0 and 1 pins. 

    If the Rogowski is not connected or is connected but not correctly (see ckt above) there may be to much noise. 

    you are using a PGA gain of 1 for the current channel is this correct for your Rogowski coil? 

    Dave

  • Actually the code is perfectly working for normal CTs (integrator OFF)all other config done in different function.In the circuit capacitor c55 and load resister is not soldered.. But still not getting.

    When i tried with integrator OFF then its getting correct wave for one phase.

    Issue is when integrator ON its reads constant value.
