Abstract

A capacitive voltage sensor assembly includes a first electrode extending along a longitudinal axis, the first electrode including a first end and a second end opposite the first end, a second electrode surrounding the second end of the first electrode, the second electrode including a tubular portion having a first end and a second end opposite the first end, and a base portion coupled to the first end of the tubular portion, and a mass of dielectric insulating material at least partially encapsulating the first electrode and the second electrode. The tubular portion includes a plurality of cantilevered tabs interconnected at the first end of the second electrode. Each tab of the plurality of cantilevered tabs is circumferentially separated from an adjacent tab of the plurality of cantilevered tabs to define a gap therebetween at the second end of the second electrode.
