Abstract
An apparatus for measuring the loss factor of an insulator for medium or high voltages is equipped with a tap adapter forming a point for picking up an electrical signal, and comprises a reference capacitor having a first electrode connected to the tap adapter and a second electrode; a first voltage detection module is connected to the first electrode of the reference capacitor for detecting a signal representative of the voltage applied to the reference capacitor; an active electronic device is connected to earth and to the second electrode of the reference capacitor for keeping the potential of the second electrode at a predetermined reference value; a second voltage detection module is connected to an output of the active electronic device in order to detect a signal representative of the electric current that flows through the reference capacitor.
