Abstract
As underground distribution lines are increasing, the accidents in those lines are also increasing. For example, 2 pedestrians were killed by an electric shock on a hand-hole flooded by localized torrential downpours in Korea in 2005. In order to prevent such disasters, we have devised a electric leakage alarm system for a flooded hand-hole. To use underwater sensors is one of the most effective ways in detection of underwater electric leakage. We have experimented a 3-axis underwater electric potential sensor to verify whether it can be used to detect underwater electric leakage. In this paper, it was confirmed to be able to detect underwater electric leakage using 3-axis underwater electric potential sensors.
