Calibration of Voltage Transformers and High- Voltage Capacitors at NIST
نویسنده
چکیده
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) calibration service for voltage transformers and high-voltage capacitors is described. The service for voltage transformers provides measurements of ratio correction factors and phase angles at primary voltages up to 170 kV and secondary voltages as low as 10 V at 60 Hz. Calibrations at frequencies from 50-400 Hz are available over a more limited voltage range. The service for high-voltage capacitors provides measurements of capacitance and dissipation factor at applied voltages ranging from 100 V to 170 kV at 60 Hz depending on the nominal capacitance. Calibrations over a reduced voltage range at other frequencies are also available. As in the case with voltage transformers, these voltage constraints are determined by the facilities at NIST.

Voltage Equalization of DC Link capacitors in a CHB-Based PET under the Unbalance Voltage Conditions
The unbalance currents injection by power electronic transformers in order to improve the unbalance voltage conditions of the network causes an imbalanced voltage in the DC link capacitors and creates an active powers inequality in the different phases. In this paper, the proposed control structure independently controls the active power of each phase by modifying the power angle between the vo...

Researchers within the Quantum Electrical Metrology Division at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have implemented a calibration procedure for four-terminal-pair capacitance standards from 0.01 μF to 100 μF [1], [2]. This method depends on the accurate characterization of a 1 nF capacitor and an Inductive Voltage Divider (IVD) 1:10 ratio from 100 Hz to 100 kHz. This pape...

In this paper, a series Z-source inverter based on switched inductors cell is proposed for the first time. This inverter is able to increase the voltage gain in comparison to the conventional Z–source inverters in additon to solve the ST (shoot-through) state’s problems. In this inverter, the value of voltage gain is increased by increasing the number of used diodes and inductors in the switche...
