Abstract :
Fiber voltage sensors based on the electro-optic effect are described. The basis of sensor operation and the effect of sensor design parameters on system performance are described. Field test and laboratory test results are presented from fiber optic voltage sensors collected at the US Army ETDL´s Pulsed Power Center and Sandia National Laborato ries.
