With the right equipment and training, it’s possible to safely work on energized power lines in the 500 kV range with bare hands. Most of us, though, don’t have the right equipment or training, and ...

Figure 1 shows two ways to measure a large signal. The first comprises a two resistor divider and an output buffer; the second an inverter with a large attenuator. Both of these approaches lead to ...

Vector now offers products and solutions for measurements on high-voltage systems. The new e-mobility measurement system from Vector and CSM enables users to perform fast and time-synchronous ...

I work a lot with high voltages and others frequently replicate my projects, so I often get asked “What voltage is needed?”. That means I need to be able to measure high voltages. Here’s how I do it ...

The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS) has established, for the first time in Korea, a measurement standard that can reliably verify the performance of ultra-high voltage direct ...

Proper calibration of this test equipment is crucial to meeting the strict performance requirements of many high-voltage systems. Calibration results often need to comply with national or ...

The new ELM3002-0205 EtherCAT measurement terminal from Beckhoff delivers high-voltage measurement functionality for batteries, generators and motors. This feature-filled I/O terminal supports the ...

Many applications call for measuring ac lines or high dc voltages. One common technique uses a large voltage divider followed by a buffer. Another employs an inverting attenuator. The problems ...

NaREC was last month to become the leading high-voltage measurement laboratory in the UK, as it unveiled its new calibration laboratory to become the custodian of the UK’s High Voltage Reference ...

The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS) has established Korea's first national standards for the reliable performance verification of High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) ...

Don’t get zapped when buying a new high-voltage DC power supply. Understand the specifications first. Lasers, linear accelera-tors, X-ray machines, defibrillators, radar, and numerous other ...
