Abstract

The measurement of the amplitude and phase of electric fields on high voltage transmission lines is important for several reasons including a) Metering and determination of power flow, b) protective relaying. and c) fault sensing. The work reported here is directed toward a major improvement to optically based, electric-field sensors. This is a signal processing based technique for overcoming the instabilities of conventional, optically-based, electric-field sensors to changes in optical power or temperature.
