However, in practical measurement of noncontact voltage, sensor gain is affected by wire diameter, wire insulation material, and relative position deviation. At the same time, it is also subject to interference from interphase or peripheral coupling electric fields. This paper proposes a noncontact voltage measurement self-calibration method based on dynamic capacitance, which realizes self-calibration of sensor gain through unknown line voltage to be measured. Firstly, the basic principle of the self-calibration method for noncontact voltage measurement based on dynamic capacitance is introduced. Subsequently, the sensor model and parameters were optimized through error analysis and simulation research. Based on this, a sensor prototype and remote dynamic capacitance control unit that can shield against interference are developed. Finally, the accuracy test, anti-interference ability test, and line adaptability test of the sensor prototype were conducted. The accuracy test showed that the maximum relative error of voltage amplitude was 0.89%, and the phase relative error was 1.57%. The anti-interference ability test showed that the error offset was 0.25% when there were interference sources. The line adaptability test shows that the maximum relative error in testing different types of lines is 1.01%.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23083851","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,10]],"date-time":"2023-04-10T03:24:18Z","timestamp":1681097058000},"page":"3851","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Self-Calibration Sensor for Contactless Voltage Measurement Based on Dynamic Capacitance"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Chunguang","family":"Suo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Science, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650504, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rujin","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Science, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650504, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Guoqiong","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Science, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650504, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wenbin","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650504, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yanyun","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Science, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650504, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mingxing","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Science, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650504, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1244","DOI":"10.1109\/TPEL.2021.3105689","article-title":"Transfer-power measurement using a non-contact method for fair and accurate metering of wireless power transfer in electric vehicles","volume":"37","author":"Chu","year":"2022","journal-title":"IEEE Trans.
