I'd like to know if it is possible to place a current source that looks like the following:
[Tex/LaTex] Circuitikz Current Source
circuitikztikz-pgf

You can use the \draw command from TikZ to place the arrow at the desired location:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{circuitikz}
\begin{document}
\begin{circuitikz} \draw
(0,0) to [sV, l=$V_{\text{upstream}}$] (0,2)
to [R, l=$R$] (2,2)
to [L, l=$X_l$] (4,2)
to [sV , l=$V_{\text{DG}}$] (4,0)
-- (0,0);
\draw[-latex] (2.5,0.5) -- (1.5,0.5);
\end{circuitikz}
\end{document}
I found a solution to my problem using geometric concepts, but the code is a little large. I will like to generate something like a function, any help. Here is the Code. You Only need two points and the code draw the Noise Current Source. The First Coordinate always is the point up other left.
