Design and Construction of a Measurement Probe for AC Medium Voltage

This work presents the design and construction of a medium voltage probe up to 12 kV, using a damped capacitive voltage divider. The prototype can be used for voltage measurements using conventional multimeters and oscilloscopes in voltage measurements on AC and impulses, limiting to the maximum the waves distortion. In addition, the results of the mathematical calculations and simulations performed in Simulink - Matlab are presented. The design components are commercially available elements for low voltage practice, this ensures effective maintenance and repair of the probe.
