Abstract

A generalized system for automatic ac/dc transfer, ac voltage and ac current measurement has been built, which consist in a set of programmable instruments and a proper software. The hardware part of the system is configurable and the software can be arranged on the basis of the particular operative needs. The system has been tested for the measurement repeatability and for the compatibility with measurement performed by previous systems. Both these characteristics are satisfactory and the system can now be utilized for the almost automatic calibration of a large variety of calibrations.
