Aiming at the issues of low sensitivity and poor resistance to temperature and vibration interference in traditional optical fiber current transformers, as well as the structural complexity of magnetostrictive material-coupled sensors, this paper integrates a high-sensitivity electrostrictive piezoelectric ceramic sensor with an FBG-FP cascaded fiber-optic sensor. This coupling significantly optimizes the sensor structure. By employing orthogonal intensity demodulation to enhance detection sensitivity, and adopting a multi-cycle waveform-averaging method to calculate the DC output light intensity, temperature calibration and compensation are achieved through the correlation between the DC output light intensity and operating points. Experimental results demonstrate that the designed sensor exhibits a detection bandwidth of 0-7 kHz, fully meeting the requirements for power-frequency current detection. Its current measurement range spans 0.15-42 mA, with a minimum measurable current as low as 150 μA. This study provides a compact, high-precision, highly scalable, and adaptable current detection solution for power systems, demonstrating significant engineering application value.
