Staff protection in super high voltage electric substations by using of the electric field measurement devices

The paper shows the ability to protect electric power substations personnel from the harmful effects of the super high voltage electric field by using mobile electric field measurement devices, which are placed in mans helmet close to head. The results of numerical modeling of the external uniform electric field distortion by a human body are presented. It is done also the analysis of influence the man physical characteristics and dielectric properties of his footwear sole on the electric field distortion © 2012 IEEE.
