* One straight array in [[TJ-II:Sectors|sector]] C4, at ''φ'' = 308°.  
* One poloidal array with 15 coils measuring the poloidal field component. This array is located between [[TJ-II:Sectors|sectors]] D4 and D5, at ''φ'' = 45°. The signals in the [[TJ-II:Shot database|TJ-II database]] corresponding to these coils are called 'MID5Px', where 'x' is the coil number. This array has been enhanced by 10 additional coils (5 at each end).

Two Rogowski coils have been installed in [[TJ-II:Sectors|sectors]] A5 (148.7&deg;) and B4 (211.3&deg;). Since the coils have to surround the plasma column completely, they are located under the protecting tiles of the groove that runs toroidally all along the [[TJ-II:Vacuum system|vacuum vessel]]. For this purpose, 2 mm deep channels were machined on the vacuum side of the groove, at the above mentioned poloidal cross sections, in order to allow enough space for the coils.

The signals 'W_a5_corr_' and 'W_b4_corr_' in the [[TJ-II:Shot database|TJ-II database]] return the energy content of the plasma, based on the diamagnetic loop in [[TJ-II:Sectors|sectors]] A5 and B4, corrected for the net plasma current.
