Influcing Factor Research of Kerr Effect

This paper presents a model of Kerr effect for the influencing factors research. The influencing factors proposed are Kerr cell voltage, charging duration time and electrode material. The experimental results show that refractive index of transformer oil will rise when Kerr cell voltage become larger; There is a period of 15 minutes called ‘polarization time’ after the beginning of the experiment and electrode material indeed has an obvious effect on the transformer oil.
