DETERMINATION OF EXPOSURE TO ELECTRIC FIELDS IN EXTRA HIGH VOLTAGE SUBSTATIONS

It is concluded that the electric field strengths and the electrical discharges to the personnel are the important electrophysical factors. Instruments for measuring the field strength at grounded surfaces and at nonzero potentials were constructed. Results are presented of measurements with these instruments in sub-stations. A dummy was used for the measurement of the distribution of capacitive currents in a man. The dummy can also be used for measuring the effectiveness of special shielding clothes.
