Abstract
We report on a new method for the measurement of the level dependence of the AC-DC difference of current shunts. The method is based on the use of a binary inductive current divider. A method to compare two AC shunts at common ground is described. Measurement results on two 1-A AC shunts, which consist of different numbers of resistors, indicate that the level dependence between 0.5 and 1 A is less than 2 ??A/A with an uncertainty of less than 7 ??A/A from 1 to 100 kHz.
