RETROFITTABLE VOLTAGE SENSING DEVICE FOR POWER NETWORKS

摘要

Voltage sensing device (1) for sensing an elevated voltage in a power distribution network, comprisinga) a sensored insulation plug (10) comprising- a voltage sensor for sensing the elevated voltage, comprising a high-voltage contact;- a plug mating portion (50), shaped to mate the sensored insulation plug (10) with a corresponding socket mating portion of a separable connector, wherein the high-voltage contact is arranged in the plug mating portion (50) such that the high-voltage contact can be connected to the elevated voltage of the separable connector when the sensored insulation plug (10) is mated with the separable connector;b) a tubular insulating sleeve (20), comprising a socket mating portion (100) shaped as a socket mating portion of the separable connector and mated with the plug mating portion (50) of the insulation plug (10);c) a conductive rod (30) having a first end portion (120) for electrical connection to the power conductor, and an opposed second end portion, electrically connected to the high-voltage contact and arranged in the insulating sleeve (20).
