A measuring technique with a multilayer insulator is proposed to enable charge distribution measurement on an insulator of high potential. By using this technique, the residual charge distribution of the positive surface discharge was successfully measured with an electrostatic probe; nevertheless its potential is 10 times higher than the measurable range of an electrostatic probe. © 2012 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.
