6135A/PMUCAL Phasor Measurement Unit Calibration System Fast, automated, traceable calibrations that comply with IEEE C37.118.1a -2014 and IEEE Synchrophasor Measurement Test Suite Specification-Version 2-2015 TM

The only commercially available, automated and traceable solution for PMU testing and calibration As the primary measurement and sensing tool in the Smart Grid, PMUs will play a broader role beyond avoiding blackouts. PMU data will be used to improve transmission and distribution efficiency by increasing the throughput and reducing line losses. Smart Grid A real-time, dynamic network of electrical demand, supply, and control GPS Satellite Provides accurate time stamp for grid activity. PMU relays Industrial plant Monitor and react to grid conditions in microseconds. Smart houses Meters and appliances...

Today’s smart grid relies on phasor measurement units (PMUs) to deliver real-time, mission critical data on the voltage, current, frequency and phase within the distribution grid. To ensure consistent, accurate and credible PMU data, it is essential that PMUs be properly calibrated. The 6135A/PMUCAL Phasor Measurement Unit Calibration System is the only fully automated and traceable PMU calibration system available today. It is an ideal solution for PMU designers and manufacturers, as well as for national metrology institutes (NMIs). It’s also a perfect solution for third party calibration houses,...

The test system architecture allows the client PC to access the test system over the Internet, from anywhere in the world. You can complete an automated PMU test in approximately six to eight hours per PMU configuration (frequency, sample rate, class), compared with many days using manual techniques. And the initial setup is also fast– just a few minutes of user interaction is required at the beginning of the automated test. System accuracy yields a test accuracy ratio of 10:1 against the the IEEE 37.118.1a-2014 measurement requirements. Creating reports with the 6135A/PMUCAL system is flexible...
