TESTING OF SINGLE
PHASE ENERGY METER FOR ACCURACY TEST
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
SCR
ELEKTRONIKS have developed an accuracy test unit for energy meters.
This facilitates the Energy Meter Manufacturers to test and adjust
the calibration accuracy within a band. This is Low Cost Solution
for accuracy check with internal Reference Standard. The error
calculation and reference standard meters are designed using latest
microcontroller based technology. Essentially, it is a variable
power source which is connected to both Reference Standard Meter
and Meter Under Test. The pulses from Reference Standard Meter
and Meter Under Test are fed to the Error Display Unit programmed
for specific parameters. It compares the energy registered by
Reference Standard Meter and Meter Under Test and calculates the
error. The error is displayed on Digital display in percentage
with resolution of 0.01.
Error Display Unit is Mircocontroller based unit for calculating
error in energy meters. It accepts pulses from Reference Standard
Meter and from Meter Under Test and displays error. Accordingly,
PASS or FAIL LED glows to indicate whether the meter error is
within allowable limits or not. Meter constants of both the meters
and Error Limits are programmable and can be set through keys
provided on front plate.
