Abstract

A voltage potential measurement arrangement for measuring a voltage potential on a conductor in an encapsulated power switching device includes at least a portion of the conductor surrounded by a field control component, in particular a field control electrode, having a measuring electrode for capacitive coupling to the conductor. The measuring electrode is disposed outside of the field control component and the field control component is penetrated by at least one aperture at the height of the measuring electrode. A corresponding encapsulated power switching device is also provided.
