Electrostatic shielding technique on high voltage resistor

摘要

A phasing voltage meter comprises first and second probes. Each probe comprises an insulated shield supporting an electrode for contacting a high voltage electrical conductor. The shield houses a high voltage resistor connected in series with the electrode. A capacitance formed by a metallic collar across the resistor compensates for stray capacitance across the resistor. A meter comprises a housing enclosing electrode circuit for measuring phasing voltage. The electrical circuit measures voltage across the electrodes and provides an output representing phasing voltage.
