A remote current sensor for use in a fault detector for an electrical transmission system. The remote current sensor includes a Hall effect transducer for measuring the magnetic field surrounding a conductor of the transmission system to thereby monitor the currents flowing through the conductor. The transducer is positioned between a pair of tapered pole pieces for concentrating low density magnetic flux in the air into a high density magnetic flux focused onto the transducer. The pole pieces enable the sensors to be positioned a distance from the conductor which is greater than the electrical arcing distance so as to allow use of the air gap between the conductor and sensor as insulation.
