There are four measurements in the capacitance scaling procedure necessary to calibrate an inductive voltage divider. First, the 100 pF capacitor is measured using an automatic capacitance bridge, producing C100pCB.
Selection and calibration of capacitors for use as Standards is a challenging task, especially since the accuracies required, depening on the application, can be very demanding for the test gear as well as for the secondary- and working-standards used.
2. Capacitance Calibration The precision measurement of capacitors for the purpose of calibration is generally based on a national primary standard of high accuracy, secondary/working Standards derived from it, and a capacitance- (or LCR-) meter used for the measurement (i.e. calibration) of the devices under test (DUT).
In our case, the capacitor is connected to the LCR meter via a 0.61 m cable. The calibration interpolation factor, Kc = 0, because all of the measurements are taken at direct calibration frequencies. The cable length factor, Kd = 0.00025(1 + 50fm), for the calibration interpolation factor is given for a cable length of 1 m.
It is recommended that this calibration be performed before each calibration of a capacitor set, in order to minimize the measurements errors. The program creates one file to store the measurements and another file where the report summarizing the calibration results will be stored.

Unlike the off-line calibration method, the on-site calibration method does not need the EVTs to be disconnected from the HV line and it is more flexible and convenient. As a result, the metering quality of the power system can be enhanced. However, there are two difficulties for the on-site method. One problem is how to connect the standard transformer to …
