Zusammenfassung:Sensor devices and related methods disclosed. One example sensor device (12) includes a Rogowski coil (104) defining an aperture (110) and a dielectric material (108) at least partially enclosing the Rogowski coil. The dielectric material has a dielectric constant of at least about 3.5. The dielectric material is configured such that, when a conductor (14) is at least partially inserted within the aperture, at least a portion of the dielectric material is positioned between the Rogowski coil and the conductor.
