3.2.1 Metering Setup

Figure 3-1 shows the full system setup needed to mimic a revenue-grade meter targeting class 0.2 – class 0.3 according to ANSI C12.1. The test setup consists of four main parts:

  1. A programmable current and voltage source (PTS3.3C test system)
  2. Signal conditioning board with multiple PCB Rogowski coils (TIDA-010987)
  3. ADS131M08 Metrology Evaluation Module
  4. GUI for meter performance monitoring and calibration
