Working principle

The CVI-2R capacitive voltage indicator operates on the principle of capacitive coupling. An electrode connected to each medium-voltage phase conductor forms a coupling capacitance with the primary conductor and, together with the circuit capacitance to earth, establishes a capacitive voltage divider. This converts the primary voltage into a low-level sensing signal without a direct conductive connection to the high-voltage conductor.

The CVI-2R processes the three-phase sensing signals and indicates voltage status according to preset thresholds, including dual-stage voltage indication and overvoltage indication. Dedicated self-test and voltage verification buttons support functional checks and voltage absence verification, while the three-phase LRM test interface enables phase comparison and phase sequence verification. Relay outputs provide additional interfaces for remote indication and interlocking.
