The Experimental Study on the Influence of Human Body to Measurement of High Voltage Power Frequency Electric Field

Abstract:

Based on the basic theory of electromagnetic field, the Electric Field Distortion (EFD) in power frequency electric field caused by induced current of human body has been analyzed. The enhancement factor of the electric field distortion is introduced to reduce the influences caused by human body in the measurement of high voltage electric fields. The Ansoft Maxwell is used to simulate and calculate the electric field distribution under the influence of the human body to have the value of enhancement factor. In addition, the enhancement factor has been corrected by experiment with the electromagnetic field analyzer EFA300. With the enhancement factor introduced in this paper, the measurement error can be reduced.
