Claim Text:
1. A bracket for spatially aligning a current sensor with respect to a conductor carrying a current to be measured by the current sensor, the bracket comprising: a first bus bar centering member configured to extend axially through an aperture of a current sensor, the first bus bar centering member having a first interior surface to engage a conductor; a second bus bar centering member configured to extend axially through the aperture of a current sensor, the second bus bar centering member having a second interior surface to engage a conductor at a separation distance from the first interior surface based on a thickness of the conductor; a base member connecting to a proximal end of the first bus bar centering member and to a proximal end of the second bus bar centering member; a first securing lip extending radially from the first bus bar centering member to engage opposing exterior surfaces of the current sensor between the base member and the first securing lip; and, a rotational control member on the base member, wherein coupling the rotational control member to a complementary feature of the current sensor inhibits rotation of the first and second bus bar centering members within the aperture of the current sensor.
