current sensing

[maxg]

does any one know of a simple device that sense current and give 3 ouput
right current, to high or to low.
around the 8 to 10 A
thanks

You want 3 outputs? What should these outputs indicate?

 

[maxg]

3 led, red green and what ever I need a middle point and then 3 A above and below, the middle point be at 8 A

Sorry, I still don't know what you're trying to say.

Do you want different LEDs to turn on at different current levels?

 

[Roff]

AC or DC?
Is it acceptable to insert a resistor in the current path?

I guess he wants something like a window comparator.

Indications: within, above, below window

Yes, it now sounds like the OP needs a shunt feeding an amp feeding a window comparator.
The center of the ranges are 5, 8 and 11 amps so the comparator would trip at 6.5A and 9.5A. . .?
If a shunt is allowed can it be on the low side. . .?
What is the max permissible voltage drop in the shunt. . .?
AC or DC or other. . .?

A course in tech writing wouldn't hurt, either.

English doesn't appear to be his first language, so I suspect a course in tech writing wouldn't help. If English is his first language, may God help him...
