standard and unit under test
Operation
Personal computer State of the art
Software Automatic test runs in the areas of meter verification,
acceptance and certification
Semi-automatic adjustment test runs.
Archiving and data processing routine
Control and communication programme, working together with
the power source, reference standard and meter error
evaluation system
Customized software configuration, means the operator only
sees, what he needs
Comprehensive, but simple Test Report Mask Generator with
user defined format
Definition of user access rights with defined color profiles
Test Report generator for independent reporting in certification
and sample measurements.
Printouts in pdf, html-, csv-, rtf-Format
Archiving and data processing routine
Data export routines to other applications, e.g. WINDOWS
EXCEL
Routines for saving measurement data, measurement
programmes and report masks in SQL data base with huge
searching functionalities
Control of energy register and maximum demand indicators
Energy register tests for minimum of eight electronic or
mechanical tariffs with different measuring modes
Maximum demand tests for minimum of eight electronic or
mechanical tariffs with different measuring modes
The resulting additional error should be also recorded on the
test certificate.
Start and no-load measurements in both energy directions in
form of an attribute test, pass (+), fail (-)
Meters with identical circuit connection and rating, but differing
constants should be calibrated and tested together.
Manual operation mode
Actual values can be displayed on 2nd monitor
Actual value display showing - Test voltage U1, U2, U3
following values: - Test voltage U12, U23, U31
- 3 test current I1, I2, I3
- Individual active, reactive, apparent power per phase
- Total active, reactive, apparent power of the system
- Frequency
- Phase angle between voltage/current in degrees
