1. A current sensor comprising:
- a printed circuit board including an upper layer, a lower layer, and an intermediate layer coupled to the upper and lower layers, each of the upper layer, the lower layer, and the intermediate layer has an opening defined therethrough, the printed circuit board being movable between a first configuration and a second configuration,in the first configuration, the upper portion, the lower portion, and the inner conductor are disposed in the same plane,in the second configuration, at least one of the upper portion, the lower portion, or the inner conductor is disposed at an angle relative to another of the upper portion, the lower portion, or the inner conductor and the opening of each of the upper layer, the lower layer, and the intermediate layer is coaxial with one another such that at least one lead is disposable through the opening of each of the upper layer, the lower layer, and the intermediate layer; and
a sensor assembly including;
an outer coil having;
an upper portion disposed on the upper layer of the printed circuit board; and
a lower portion disposed on the lower layer of the printed circuit board; and
an inner conductor disposed on the intermediate layer of the printed circuit board.
