Abstract:
A capacitive voltage transformer arrangement for reducing a high voltage to a lower voltage, said arrangement comprising:a capacitive voltage divider provided in an insulating case having a first terminal adapted to be connected with said high voltage, and a second terminal adapted to be connected to ground, said capacitive voltage divider being formed by a series connection of a first capacitor and a second capacitor wherein one end of said first capacitor is connected to said first terminal and one end of said second capacitor is connected to said second terminal and wherein a second end of said first capacitor and a second end of said second capacitor are connected to each other and form a common join; and an induction transformer having a primary winding having a first end connected to said common join, and a second end of said primary winding being connected to ground, said induction transformer further including a secondary winding providing said lower voltage and adapted to be connected to a load, wherein said primary winding is an impedance coil which creates a resonance circuit with said second capacitor.
