A Power Factor Calibrator, using precise wattmeter as calibration tool to obtain short and long term stability and accuracy, is described. By frequently applying auto-calibration procedure most of parasitic factors are eliminated and accuracy depcnds mainly on wattmeter's error at zero power factor. The calibrator uncertainty of +-0.003" is achieved.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
