Abstract :
This paper reports on the research and development of an optical current sensor for harmonic analysis within the electricity supply network. The device has a measurement capability, limited by the sampling frequency of the analog-to-digital converter, to around 20 kHz. We report on experimental verification of these measurements up to the 60th harmonic (3 kHz).
