II. TECHNOLOGY
The NXVCT system consists of three major sub-systems:
the HV columns, the electronics, and the cabling system. The
columns reside in the HV substation yard, separating high
voltage from ground, and housing optical voltage and current
sensing heads. HV lines pass through the current sensing
head of each column (see Fig. 1). The electronics associated
with the optical sensing heads reside in a rack remotely
located in a control room, and fiber optic cables carry light
between the electronics rack and the sensor heads in the
columns. The electronics quantify the influence of voltage or
current on light in the sensor heads and, thereby, determine a
measure of the corresponding voltage or current, respectively.

III. RESULTS
The NXVCT system was tested according to IEC 60044-7,
60044-8, IEEE C57.13, IEEE C37.92, and the customers
internal standards for 550 kV voltage and current
transformers, see [14]-[17]. In most cases, if there was a
disagreement between the above standards, the most stringent
one was used.
A. HV Dielectric Tests
The optical instrument transformers went through various
HV dielectric tests. One of the columns went through type
tests, while the rest were exposed to routine and some special
tests. Every column was exposed to the following HV
dielectric tests:
one-minute AC voltage withstand test at 800 kV,
OVT
120 V, over-voltage 1.2,
Burden: 2.5VA
