In this paper an optical voltage sensor and an optical current sensor which can be used for the measurement of impulse voltage and current are implemented. BSO single crystal is utilized as a voltage sensor(Pockels effect cell). An rare earth doped YIG is used as a current sensor(Faraday effect cell). A new signal processing technique is adopted not only to avoid the influences o external optical fiber pertubations of transmitting optical fiber but also to improves the frequency response characteristics of the fiber-optic voltage and current sensors. Experimental results show that optical voltage sensor has maximum 2.5% error within the voltage range from 0V to 500V. and optical current sensor has maximum 2.5% error within the current range and that of optical current sensor is about 1.5% within temperature range from -2$0^{\circ}C$ to 6$0^{\circ}C$. The proposed optical sensors have good frequency response characteristics within the frequency range from DC to 10MHz.

This paper reports the principle, system confiquration, test results of optical voltage sensor using quartz pockels cell. The Pockels effect of quartz material is used for designing optical voltage sensor. The quarts material has very high half-wave voltage, so, it can be applied to measure high voltage level.

A single body type of fiber-optic current and voltae sensor using a rare earth doped YIG and a bismuth silicon oxide single crystsl is proposed, which is used for simultaneous measurement of the AC electric current and AC electric voltage over the trasmission lines. Experimental results showed that the fiber-optic current sensor has the maximum 7.5% error within the current range of 0A to 400A, and the fiber-optic voltage sensor has the maximum 0.87% error within the current range of 0V to 400V. The output waveforms of proposed fiber-optic sensor system has a good agreement with output waveforms of conductor current and voltage. Experimental results proved that the output of fiber-optic current sensor is not affected by the electric voltage applied to the fiber-optic voltage sensor, and also, that the output of fiber-optic voltage sensor is not affected by the electric current applied to the fiber-optic current sensor.

본 연구에서는 광계측 기술을 이용하여 배전자동화 개폐기 내에서 발생하는 전자 계측장치의 절연문제 및 측정오차의 문제점을 개선하기 위하여 배선자동화개폐기 내장형 광전류 및 광전압센서를 연구하였다. 자기광학 효과(magneto optic effect)인 페러데이효과(Faraday effect)를 이용하여 최적의 광전류 센서를 설계 제작하여 높은 전류까지 선형성을 유지시키고 다른 상의 전류에 대한 유도현상을 최소로 하기 위해 순철 코아를 사용하여 광전류 센서를 일체화시켜 설계 제작하였다. 설계내에서 결정의 굴절률 및 방위각의 변화에 의해 생기는 전기광학효과(electrooptic effect)인 포켈스 효과(pockels effect)를 이용하여 광전압센서를 구성하였으며 배전 자동화용 개폐기의 협소한 내부구조를 고려하여 공간전계방식을 채택하였다. 또한 다심의 광섬유를 개폐기와 외부의 신호처리 단말기와 연결하기 위하여 기밀형 멀티 광커넥터를 설계 자작하여 접속 손실 및 가스 누설 시험을 하였다. 전기적 특성시험에서 광 전류센서에서는 인가 전류에 대한 선형 특성은 20A 에서 700A까지 변동 오차 2.5% 이내의 선형성을 유지하였으며, 광전압센서에 있어서 인가 전압에 대한 선형 특성은 6.6kV에서 19.8kV까지 거의 변동 오차가 1% 이내로 우수한 선형 특성을 나타냈다.

We present an optical Voltage and current sensor using $BSO(Bi_{12}SiO_{20})$ monocrystal. The voltage and current sensor consist of PBS(Polarizing Beam Splitter), 1/4 wavelength plate, ZnSe, Selfoc lens, LED, and PIN-PD etc. Magnetic core was made using permalloy for applying magnetic field to current sensor effectively. Current was measured from 100 to 1,600 ampere and accuracy was about ${\pm}$5%. The accuracy could be improved to ${\pm}$l% after reducing the nonlinear property of BSO crystal using our own program in PC (IBM286). We noticed that these data were not influenced by 154,000 voltage at all. Applied voltage was reduced to 1/20 using capacitors. And experiment was carried out up to 450V of the reduced voltage. The data fran optical voltage sensor was similar to that from conventional voltage sensor. The accuracy of the data was within about ${\pm}$1%.

We present an electro-optical voltage sensor. Crystalline bismuth germanate(BI4Ge3O12) used as the electro-opticla crystal exhibited linear birefringences of 1.7x10**-5 to 5.4x10**-4. And these birefringences were observed to be strongly temperature dependent. In order to improve the stability of the electro-opticlal voltage sensor, crystals (Bi4Ge3=12) were annealed and a compensation method was used. After applying this compensation method to the voltage sensor, the temperature stability, pressure stability, and vibration stability of the sensor were highly improved, Noise Equivalent Voltage of this sensor was a few mV/\ulcornerz.

This paper measures the hot spot temperatures in a single-phase, 154 kV, 15/20 MVA power transformer filled with natural ester fluid using optical fiber sensors and compares them with those calculated by conventional heat run tests. A total of 14 optical fiber sensors were installed on the high-voltage and low-voltage windings to measure the hot spot temperatures. In addition, three thermocouples were installed in the transformer to measure the temperature distribution during the heat run tests. In the low-voltage winding, the hot spot temperature was $108.4^{\circ}C$, calculated by the conventional heat run test. However, the hot spot temperature measured using the optical fiber sensor was $129.4^{\circ}C$ between turns 2 and 3 on the upper side of the low-voltage winding. Therefore, the hot spot temperature of the low-voltage winding measured using the optical fiber sensor was $21.0^{\circ}C$ higher than that calculated by the conventional heat run test.

A fiber optic voltage sensor using photoelastic effect of a single-mode optical fiber, excited with a 632.8 nm He-Ne laser, is developed. The photoelastic effect is produced by piezoelectric effect for the voltage measurement. It is found that the detector output voltage is proportional to the applied voltage. Also, the frequency of the output voltage is equal to that of the applied voltage. Experimental results from a laboratory model demonstrate the feasibility of the sensor for field application in high-voltage systems.

Use of higher voltage and higher capacity of power systems and their equipment is leading to an increase in the size of the entire system. In order to reduce the cost of constructing a substation, it is necessary to reduce the size of equipment. So, this paper described optical sensor, which exploited the electric and magnetic potentiometer to sense the measured voltage and current of medium voltage GIS. It can be used both in measurement and in protection relays as its well linearity, rapid response, broad dynamic range, wide frequency band, no magnetic saturation, small in volume, light weight, and saft in insulation.
