Abstract: A current detection sensor is disclosed. The current detection sensor comprises a current probe configured to connect to a remotely operated vehicle (ROV). The current probe comprises a low reluctance core configured to selectively enclose about a conductor in response to an actuation of the ROV. A gauge comprising a gauge control circuit is in conductive communication with an input and an output of the current probe. The gauge controller is configured to identify transmission data for the conductor based on a detection routine. The detection routine comprises supplying an input signal to the input and monitoring a voltage at the output. Based on the voltage, the routine identifies electrical properties of the current transmitted through the conductor.
