3. Traditional High Voltage Sensors

Traditionally, high voltage measurements have been performed using:

• Voltage Transformers (ВЦ): Also known as potential transformers (PTs), these are step-down transformers that reduce high voltage to a lower, measurable level.
• Current Transformers (КТ): Ці transformers measure high current by producing a proportional current in a secondary winding.
• Resistive Dividers: These use a series of resistors to divide the high voltage into smaller, measurable voltages.
• Capacitive Dividers: These use capacitors in a similar way to resistive dividers to reduce voltage.

While these traditional sensors are widely used, they have limitations in high-voltage environments:

• Електромагнітні перешкоди (EMI): High-voltage environments generate strong electromagnetic fields that can interfere with the accuracy of traditional sensors.
• Safety Concerns: Direct electrical connections to high-voltage lines pose safety risks.
• Size and Weight: Traditional VTs and CTs can be large and heavy, especially at higher voltage levels.
• Limited Bandwidth: Traditional sensors may have limited bandwidth, making it difficult to capture fast transient events.
• Installation Challenges: Installing and maintaining traditional sensors in high-voltage environments can be complex and require specialized equipment.

5. Types of Fiber Optic High Voltage Sensors

Several types of fiber optic sensors are used for high voltage measurements:

• Волокниста решітка Брегга (FBG) Датчики: FBGs are used for measuring strain and temperature, which can be correlated to voltage or current. Ан FBG is a short segment of optical fiber with a periodic variation in the refractive index of the fiber core. This grating reflects a specific wavelength of light (the Bragg wavelength) that shifts in response to changes in strain or temperature.
• Interferometric Sensors: Ці sensors use the interference of light waves to measure changes in optical path length, which can be related to voltage or current. Examples include Mach-Zehnder interferometers and Fabry-Perot interferometers.
• Pockels Effect Sensors: These sensors utilize the Pockels effect, in which an electric field modifies the refractive index of certain crystals (напр., bismuth germanate, lithium niobate). The change in refractive index is proportional to the applied voltage, and this change can be measured using polarized light.
• Faraday Effect Sensors: These sensors use the Faraday effect, where the polarization plane of light rotates when it passes through a material in the presence of a magnetic field. The rotation angle is proportional to the magnetic field strength, which is directly related to the current.
• Fluorescence-Based Sensors: Ці sensors are primarily used for temperature measurement. They rely on the principle that the decay time of fluorescence emitted by certain materials is temperature-dependent.
