Calibration of high voltage and high power measuring systems in testing laboratories: a tool for a better quality assurance

摘要

The growing demand of quality that nowadays urges in every field of industrial activities, requires to monitor and to control every aspect of the productive process, starting from the project elaboration, passing from the testing phase, ending to the delivery to the customer. Taking into account the delicate role of testing phase for transformers, switchgears, insulators, cables, that involves economical, social and safety aspects, it's evident the need to use reliable measuring systems and measuring instruments, or better saying calibrated. The paper describes in short the complex set of activities necessary to calibrate High Voltage and High Power Measuring Systems, the CESI experience in performing them, and the contribute that CESI may offer to electric power industries in the certification of their Measuring Systems and finally to quality of their products.The growing demand of quality that nowadays urges in every field of industrial activities, requires to monitor and to control every aspect of the productive process, starting from the project elaboration, passing from the testing phase, ending to the delivery to the customer.
