  In this paper, a prototype experiment preparation of a 54.167 MHz laser wire system is presented, which will be used to measure the beam size of a CW DC gun built as an electron source of FEL-THz facility in China Academmy of Engineering Physics (CAEP). The rms beam size is less than 1 mm and the average current of the electron beam is more than 1 mA. This new-type LW system ultilizes the excess power other the photocathode drive laser and becomes much cheaper and simpler. Plus, it can distinguish beams with different energies which are very close in ERLs. The system layout and the simulation results are also presented.
