An electrostatic generating voltmeter is described which has a strictly linear scale, which has no commutators, and whose calibration is substantially independent of the speed of the driving motor and of the characteristics of the associated vacuum tube amplifier. A means of calibration by use of a wire grid in front of the voltmeter is also described.
