Systems and methods for measuring low energy voltage in a high energy transmission line electrode divider network. A floating reference voltage screen is positioned between a high energy transmission line electrode and a ground plate at a distance from the high energy transmission line electrode that is shorter than a distance between the ground plate and the floating reference voltage screen. A first conductive lead electrically couples the high energy analog transmission line electrode to a first input of a voltmeter that is connected to a controller. A second conductive lead electrically couples the floating reference voltage screen to a second input of the voltmeter. An alternating voltage drop is measured across the high energy transmission line electrode and the floating reference voltage screen by electronics of the voltmeter connected to the controller. The controller and the voltmeter are both disconnected from the ground plate.

A method monitors capacitor bushings of a three-phase AC mains, which has first, second, and third mains lines respectively associated with first, second, and third: phases, capacitor bushings, and mains voltages.
