Abstract
Voltage sensing using helically coiled lengths of thermally poled twin-hole silica optical fibre is presented. The axis of the helix is aligned with the electric field to be measured and a cross sectional flat on the fibre prevents twisting when coiled. Lab accuracy test results showing good linearity and signal to noise performance are presented.
