Abstract
In this paper, we investigated the sensitivity characteristics of $Bi_{12}BiO_{20}$ (BSO) voltage transformer (VT) by utilizing optical output measured according to the variation of ambient temperature and applied voltage. Fabricated BSO VT slightly showed the decrease of the accuracy in range of from $-20^{\circ}C$ to $50^{\circ}C$, on the other hand, the variation of the optical output result was not observed at the variation of applied voltage. We could finally confirm the temperature stability, applied voltage range, and the possibility that BSO could be applied for optical sensors in GIS system.
