Hi, Eda_family

I need sample instruments/designs that are using AC and DC voltage and current sensors.

I would like to use them along with NI-DAQ system to monitor my Solar power station.
 

use the ACS714 current sensor , it can handle up to 30A (choose the bidirectional model to measure AC- and DC ), and higher current models are available . the output is analog and can be connected to any data aquasition system with analog input .
regarding the voltage sensing you can use simple voltage divider and for the AC voltage , you have to rectify first by a diode bridge .

and if you want ready to use staff check this : https://www.robotshop.com/current-voltage-sensors.html

hope that helped

regards
