An electrical field detector includes an electromechanical oscillator, part of which is included of a piezoelectric element, a frequency measuring device which is coupled to the oscillator so as to measure the oscillation frequency, and an electrical masking assembly. The electrical masking assembly is arranged close to the piezoelectric element so that, during an use of the detector, the piezoelectric element moves by vibrating relative to the electrical masking assembly. A variable part of the piezoelectric element is thus exposed to the electrical field to be measured. A change in the oscillating frequency then forms an electrical field measurement result.
