Short summary
Severe space weather events can create electric fields in the sub-surface which can disrupt, and damage grounded technological systems. In 2012 we began installing monitoring equipment at the UK geomagnetic observatories to measure these electric fields to help us better understand their effects. These have run for over ten years, gathering useful data. This paper covers the design of the system, the problems we encountered, how we overcame them and how we make the data available.
