Project Abstract

MyLaser, the implementing organization of the project, aims to develop a commercializable product as a result of the R&D activity to be carried out for an industrial product monopolized by a few European and Northern European companies (such as Nexgen, ABB, Arteche and Condis) with the project "Design and development of optical transformers for current and voltage measurement". Thanks to this project, MyLaser will be able to commercialize a product that has both import substitution and export potential. The aim of our project is to design, produce, test and produce commercializable project outputs of fiber optic-based current and voltage optical transformers for high voltage energy distribution and transmission lines. The measurement transformer will be developed as an integrated system that includes a voltage measurement sensor and a current measurement sensor for each phase. The general design of the prototype system will be developed for three phases in the 154 kV category, but the parameters will be continued by taking into account the 400 kV voltage categories during the research and development process.
