On the Calibration of Reactive Energy Meters under Non Sinusoidal Conditions
نویسندگان
چکیده
− This paper is focused on the problems related to the calibration of the reactive energy meters on the place of installation of the electricity meter (on-site), using the load of the same electrical system. In the presence of harmonic distortion, the behaviour of the meters can go out of the limits imposed by the theoretical calibration curve, depending on the metric used by both reference standard meters and meters under test.

Power measurement techniques for non-sinusoidal conditions The significance of harmonics for the measurement of power and other AC quantities
The increased application of power electronics and other non-linear loads makes it necessary to re-evaluate the measuring techniques used in the power system, and the measuring problems these loads cause. An instrument utilising digital sampling techniques has been built and evaluated at the Swedish National Testing and Research Institute (SP). The Digital Sampling Watt Meter (DSWM) is based on...

This paper focuses on improving the active and reactive power control of Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) by employing the Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) and controlling the frequency and voltage regulation instantaneously. The proposed power control scheme is composed of two control loops so that they are implemented and designed for active power control and controlling the reactive ...
متن کاملEnergy meter behaviour under non-sinusoidal conditions
Currently, there are two energy meters types installed: electromechanicals and electronics. The first ones are still the most frequent. However, new facilities tend to use electronics energy meters based on solid-state technology. Electromechanicals devices present characteristics already well known that allows us to measure only energy consumption. However, now the rules that manage the energy...

The evaluation of the electrical energy flows is at the base of all operations connected to the commercial transactions in energy market. The assessment of "metrological quality" of the power/energy measuring apparatuses is well establishes in ideal sinusoidal conditions. But, with increasing diffusion of power electronics the typical characteristics of power network are far from sinusoidal one...
متن کاملOn the methodologies for the calibration of static electricity meters in the presence of harmonic distortion
Abstrac t This paper is focused on the problems related to the calibration of static electricity meters with nonsinusoidal test waveforms. This is an up-to-date issue since the harmonic distortion levels are ever increasing, especially in low-voltage power systems, and in such conditions the performances of the modern static electricity meters can be negatively affected, depending on the implem...
