reference design of voltmeter

Pretty open question. What type of voltmeter? What range of voltage? You have not provided much information in your request.

Well, lets see what Google can do...

Not difficult is it?

If I wanted to do this I would start with a HV probe like the Fluke 80K-40. I would use strings of resistors designed for HV applications. I would read this document in detail. Once I had a divider I would find or design a signal conditioning network to get the AC to DC and scaled for a PIC or whatever. I am not suggesting you do this, merely how I might approach doing it.

You don't say much about this 33 KV and if you need to ask on something like this maybe messing with high voltage is not a good idea.

hey..

i knw thats a very high voltage range.. but for that problem i've come across that i can use a PT to reduce the voltage to approx 110 VAC which i can further pass through a series of resistors and a voltage divider ... will it be a right approach...
thanks to all of you for responding....
