Abstract
A measuring configuration for transforming an electric variable on a high-voltage line into a measurable variable. An electrically conductive hollow body that can be connected to a ground potential is connected to a hollow insulating body so as to produce in the interior a cavity through which an electric conductor is guided. In this case, a section of the insulating body at an end of the hollow body side is walled around externally with an electrode body. An electric transformer externally surrounds the hollow body. The measuring configuration is explosion-proof and can be produced in a comparatively cost-effective fashion.
