Abstract :
A device is described for measuring temperature and other parameters of high-voltage transmission-line conductors. A transmitter at line potential sends data from seven multiplexed transducers to a ground-based receiver through a fiber-optic link. The system is linear in operation throughout, the data being encoded onto the optical fiber by a voltage-to-frequency converter.
