DC electric current signals may also be used to communicate process measurement information from
transmitters to controllers, indicators, recorders, alarms, and other input devices. The simplest form
of 4-20 mA measurement loop is one where the transmitter has two terminals for the 4-20 mA signal
wires to connect, and two more terminals where a power source connects. These transmitters are
called “4-wire” or self-powered. The current signal from the transmitter connects to the process
variable input terminals of the controller to complete the loop:
