In this paper an optical voltage sensor and an optical current sensor which can be used for the measurement of impulse voltage and current are implemented. BSO single crystal is utilized as a voltage sensor(Pockels effect cell). An rare earth doped YIG is used as a current sensor(Faraday effect cell). A new signal processing technique is adopted not only to avoid the influences o external optical fiber pertubations of transmitting optical fiber but also to improves the frequency response characteristics of the fiber-optic voltage and current sensors. Experimental results show that optical voltage sensor has maximum 2.5% error within the voltage range from 0V to 500V. and optical current sensor has maximum 2.5% error within the current range and that of optical current sensor is about 1.5% within temperature range from -2$0^{\circ}C$ to 6$0^{\circ}C$. The proposed optical sensors have good frequency response characteristics within the frequency range from DC to 10MHz.

To operate electric power systems economically and stably, and to supply the electric power of good quality, it is necessary that the measured information (current, voltage, and so on) be detected and transmutted with high reliability and high effieincy. For the reason, the optical magnetic field sensor is possible to rapidly detect to over current and recover when electric power line have fault. In addition, the optical sensor have no electro magnetic distortion and no electric insulation. In this study, we designed OCR(Over Current Relay) using optical sensor. The designed OCR using optical sensor was measured characteristic and compared contentional OCR. This system have highest optical advantages and reliability.

In this paper, some of optical current transformers and optical potential transformers for extra high voltage system are introduced. The optical current transformer and optical potential transformer will be adopted in the near future, because of increasing demands of high accuracy and good reliability of current transformer and potential transformer. The application cases of optical current transformers and optical potential transformers are also introduced.

Optical current sensor and optical voltage sensor modules were designed and fabricated to improve measurement error and insulation in automatic power distributor By using Faraday effect, optical current sensor with an $\alpha$-iron core was designed and fabricated to minimize current induction of the other phase and was optimized to maintain linearity. Optical voltage sensor was fabricated owing to the pockets effect and adopted spatial electric field type because of small room in an automatic power distributor. To connect a distributor with an external terminal for signal processing, optical multi connector was designed, fabricated and tested for coupling loss and gas leakage. The linearity of optical current sensor for applied current maintains variation of smaller than 2.5% for applied current range from 20A to 700A. The linearity of optical voltage sensor was smaller than 1% for appling voltage from 6.6kV to 19.8kV. Since the measured characteristics are good, these devices can be considered as being applicable in practice.

The conventional current transformers are often take faults and out of order that for detect to over current of electric power lines because electromagnetic interference. But, it is possible to implement protection relay of high reliability using optical magnetic field sensor which are immunity and small size. The optical magnetic field sensor is possible to rapidly detect to over current and recover when electric power line have fault. And it is not necessary to make with capacitance of electric power lines as optical magnetic field sensor is have linearity from 0 to about 20kA. In this study, we designed and constructed compensative feedback circuit in order to minimize of optical power intensity variation with environ- mental variations(temperature, drive current) of light source. And this system have highest optical advantages and reliability.

In this paper, some optical parameters which have effects on the measuring precision and sensitivity of optical current sensor are analyzed. Each parameter occurs changes of specific characteristics of optical sensor system. The influences of performance and characteristics variation of optical current sensor are described in accordance with the changes of optical output power, optical bias point which is called phase difference, and a specific constant related to sensor material and wavelength of light source.

A single body type of fiber-optic current and voltae sensor using a rare earth doped YIG and a bismuth silicon oxide single crystsl is proposed, which is used for simultaneous measurement of the AC electric current and AC electric voltage over the trasmission lines. Experimental results showed that the fiber-optic current sensor has the maximum 7.5% error within the current range of 0A to 400A, and the fiber-optic voltage sensor has the maximum 0.87% error within the current range of 0V to 400V. The output waveforms of proposed fiber-optic sensor system has a good agreement with output waveforms of conductor current and voltage. Experimental results proved that the output of fiber-optic current sensor is not affected by the electric voltage applied to the fiber-optic voltage sensor, and also, that the output of fiber-optic voltage sensor is not affected by the electric current applied to the fiber-optic current sensor.

We proposed and demonstrated DC(direct current) optical current sensor based on Faraday effect for HVDC(high voltage direct current). The RIG((Bi1.3Gd0.43Y1.27)Fe5O12) was adopted as Faraday device because of its high Verdet constant and good thermal stability. The differential amplification scheme for signal processing was present. The sensor showed high linear response for the input current. Measurement range of the sensor was 0~200A and measurement error was less than 1%.

The optical current transformer using Faraday effect is the sensor to measure current that flows in any conductor. This sensor doesn't undergo the magnetic saturation and effect of adjacent conductors. But this senor using bulk-glass sensing element has crucial drawback. It is impossible that the sensor is mounted to conductor without breaking the closed-loop of light or conductor. So we developed the clamp-type optical current transformer and made an experiment.

In this study, a Web server was constructed using LabVIEW's DataSocket, which makes possible acquisition, analysis, and saving in real time. The output value of the optical current sensor at the web server PC was measured and the output value was displayed using the Web browser of the client PC. DataSocket by LabVIEW makes the construction of a Web server easier than other languages and is compatible with other application programs. An optical current sensor was composed using a 1310 [nm] laser diode, and 9/125 [${\mu}m$] standard single mode optical fiber and was created to be a close type sensor. Data measurement using Web servers has the advantage of monitoring electric power systems at a great distance and can fuse IT technology and electric power systems. Also, this measurement uses inexpensive mounting and programming when compared to existing measurement equipment allowing the construction of a measurement system in any situation or surrounding.
