Abstract
The voltage measuring device includes: a light source; a polarizer polarizing light emitted from the light source; a grounded conductor provided apart from a high-voltage conductor; a crystal end face electrode being out of contact with the grounded conductor and the high-voltage conductor; a Pockels cell transmitting light from the polarizer; an analyzer transmitting light reflected by the Pockels cell; a photodetector detecting light emitted from the analyzer; an intra-crystal electric field measurement unit converting voltage output by the photodetector into intra-crystal electric field; a bias electrode being out of contact with the crystal end face electrode; a bias supply; a bias supply control unit controlling the bias supply to keep internal electric field of the Pockels cell at zero; and a measurement voltage calculation unit obtaining voltage of the high-voltage conductor based on results output by the intra-crystal electric field measurement unit and the bias supply control unit.
