1. A Rogowski current sensor, comprising:
- a first layer of coils and a second layer of coils configured to surround a current conductor so as to perform a measurement of a current flowing in the current conductor,the first layer of coils comprising a first plurality of windings linked together, each winding of the first plurality having a longitudinal axis arranged in a first plane and first turns that are substantially perpendicular to said longitudinal axis, crossovers of the longitudinal axes of said each winding of the first plurality forming first corner zones corresponding to vertices of a first polygon in the first plane,the second layer of coils comprising a second plurality of windings linked together, each winding of the second plurality having a longitudinal axis arranged in a second plane, parallel to the first plane, and second turns that are substantially perpendicular to said longitudinal axis, crossovers of the longitudinal axes of said each winding of the second plurality forming second corner zones corresponding to vertices of a second polygon in the second plane, andthe first and second polygons being disposed facing one another such that each of the first corner zones of the first polygon is respectively situated facing a corresponding each of the second corner zones of the second polygon,wherein in each of the first and the second corner zones, an orientation of the first turns of the winding of the first layer of coils is different from an orientation of the second turns of the winding of the second layer of coils in a facing corner zone.

Abstract
A current sensor of Rogowski type including two layers of coils surrounding a current conductor, each layer of coils including a plurality of windings wound on a plurality of axes forming the contour of polygons of identical forms, arranged on parallel planes, and placed facing one another such that each corner zone of the first polygon is situated facing a corresponding corner zone of the second polygon and such that, in each corner zone, turns of the winding of the first layer of coils have different orientations from those of the turns of the winding of the second layer of coils in the facing corner zone.
