Abstract: The work introduces an optical fiber voltage transformer based on the Pockels effect. The transformer is different from a conventional electric-magnetic voltage transformer. A crystal BGO is used as sensor that is sealed in SF$-6$/ gas container; the measured signal is transferred by optical fiber in the Electro-Optical Voltage Transformer (EOVT). The principles and composition of EOVT is described here. The system consists of three parts: capacitive divider, optical sensor and electronics module. According to the analysis of factors that influence on the accuracy of measurement, the main ones, temperature and pressure of SF$-6$/, are corrected by means of signal digital process. The performances of 110kV EOVT were tested. The results show that the accuracy of EOVT could achieve 0.5 percent. Compared to a conventional electric-magnetic voltage transformer, the advantages of 110kV EOVT are higher accuracy, low cost, small volume, excellent dynamic characteristics and immunity from electromagnetic interference. In particular the low voltage is effectively isolated from the high voltage by means of the optical fiber. !7
