This paper researches the signal conditioning program of optical voltage/current transformer and the
imbalance during the transmission of dual optical path, gives a brief introduction to the basic principle of optical voltage
transformer based on electro-optic Pockels effect and optical current transformer based on Faraday Magnetic-optical
Effect, and induces a general expression form of output light intensities This paper research on the signal modulation
methods for the system: AC and DC modulations. What is more, the advantages and disadvantages of both modulations
in the system will be analyzed. Considering the characteristics that the systematic noise and signal have the spectrum
overlapping and that when there is any fault, the fact that in the small signal detection system the output SNR of AC
modulation is better than that of DC modulation will be proved. For the parameter changes caused by the environment
factors, the feedback control linked by the DSP is imported, it automatically adjusts the balance of the two branch
parameters, acquires the measured component in the condition of the two branch unbalance parameters. Furthermore,
this paper researches on the influence of imbalance of the dual optical path on the signal detection system. It analyzes the
error characteristics due to different kinds of losses and to component matching disorders and other intrinsic factors and
then put forward the method to calculate balancing factors by means of the RMS of 50Hz signal. The result proves that
using this method can improve the output SNR of optical voltage/current transformer to some extent.
