The Technology of Instrument Transformers - Current and Voltage Measurement and Insulation Systems

Existing instrument transformer technologies as well as new measuring principles for current and voltage measurement are described in this book. The properties of conventional current and voltage transformer as well as the dimensioning are discussed in details out of the long experience of the authors. Especially the dielectric dimensioning and the used materials are discussed. Beside this an overview over new modern measuring principles is given and the technology of low-power instrument transformer, and RC-dividers are shown.

?Dr.-Ing. Ruthard Minkner has a long experience in high voltage systems and in stability problems of non-linear systems. With his contribution to the IEC standardization he has influences the technology of instrument transformers worldwide.

Dr.-Ing. Joachim Schmid was head of development for conventional instrument transformer in oil-paper technology. Additionally he has pushed the technologies of low-power current transformer, optical current transformer and RC-dividers.
