Optical voltage transformer

Abstract

The invention discloses an optical voltage transformer comprising a voltage-current converter, an optical low-current sensor, and a protection gap. The voltage-current converter is implemented by a high-voltage capacitor and converts primary high voltage into low current. The optical low-current sensor is implemented by a magneto-optic glass optical current transformer and is formed by a magneto-optic glass primary sensor, a transmission optical cable, and an acquisition unit. The magneto-optic glass primary sensor is a magneto-optic glass sensing probe disposed in a solenoid and induces the low current output by the voltage-current converter by means of a Faraday magneto-optic effect. The transmission optical cable is connected with the magneto-optic glass primary sensor and the acquisition unit. The acquisition unit is arranged in a master control chamber or an outdoor cabinet, demodulates a low-current signal induced by a magneto-optic glass optical current transformer optical path system, and outputs a digital signal, indicative of primary voltage, to be used by a relay protection device and a metering device.
