Current measurement and voltage measurement

Hello!

I am working on a battery overcharge protection circuit. I can't understand why I can't current measurement and voltage measurement blocks in the circuit.

Though I can connect voltage sensor and current sensor.

Also, what is the difference betweeen these two blocks.

(Image of the circuit attached for reference)

Thanks!

Hi Hitesh,

Voltage sensor and current sensor are Simscape blocks and they work with physical signals, whereas current measurement and voltage measurement blocks are Simulink blockes and they work with Simulink signals.

Voltage sensor and current sensor can be connected to the blue connection lines in the Simscape because these two blocks are Simscape blocks.

For additional information on connecting Simscape diagrams to Simulink sources and scopes, please see the documentation here.
