Electric field transducer for energy quality monitoring
The paper considers energy quality monitoring system. Particular attention is paid to one of its elements - the electric field transducer. A method has been developed for sensor’s uncertainty determination. The expressions have been obtained for electric field intensity definition with any location of transducer sensing elements. The analysis of modern electric field transducers is carried out. The transducer sensing element has been proposed in the form of a spherical layer. The outline is presented with transducer detailing. Conclusions are drawn about the transducer uncertainty caused by the inhomogeneity of the electric field.
