Equipment to be installed in electric power-transmission and distribution systems must pass acceptance tests with standardized high-voltage or high-current test impulses which simulate the stress on the insulation caused by external lightning discharges and switching operations in the grid. High impulse voltages and currents are also used in many other fields of science and engineering for various applications. Therefore, precise impulse-measurement techniques are necessary, either to prevent an over- or understressing of the insulation or to guarantee the effectiveness and quality of the application. The target audience primarily comprises engineers and technicians but the book may also be beneficial for graduate students of high-voltage engineering and electrical power supply systems.

This book conveys the theoretical and experimental basics of a well-founded measurement technique in the areas of high DC, AC and surge voltages as well as the corresponding high currents. Additional chapters explain the acquisition of partial discharges and the electrical measured variables. Equipment exposed to very high voltages and currents is used for the transmission and distribution of electrical energy. They are therefore tested for reliability before commissioning using standardized and future test and measurement procedures. Therefore, the book also covers procedures for calibrating measurement systems and determining measurement uncertainties, and the current state of measurement technology with electro-optical and magneto-optical sensors is discussed.

This thesis gives an overview of test bench design for inverter operated Medium Voltage (MV) drives with the focus on the active power measurement. The sources of measurement setup uncertainty are analysed and methods are shown to assess these uncertainties. Further, a possibility is shown to do quantitative uncertainty estimations which are verified with measurements through different measurement setups for MV drives operated with multilevel converters. The influence of measurement transducers, voltage dividers, power meters and data acquisition boards are considered. The digital signal processing is analysed and the possibilities to reduce its uncertainty contribution on an active power measurement is shown. An analysis is made with the conventional measurement devices in the MV-range. The transfer behaviour of the devices and the characteristics of the uncertainty are investigated. Measurements are done on typical medium voltage drives with an uncertainty analysis, which shows the essential aspects of active power measurement. The results show the significance of a measurement setup performance. The investigations on the drives are used to indicate the impact on the determination of the drive efficiency and gives a significant input for further standardisation processes. The handling of measurement uncertainties during active power measurement of drives is shown concerning the permanent topic of energy saving and its efficient use. The work proposes a way of categorising electrical drives in energy efficiency classes and to make their determination comparable. Die vorliegende Dissertation gibt einen Überblick über den Prüfstandsaufbau von umrichtergetriebenen Mittelspannungsantrieben. Die Unsicherheitsquellen werden analysiert und Methoden werden aufgezeigt um die Messunsicherheit zu bewerten. Des Weiteren werden die Machbarkeit von Unsicherheitsabschätzungen gezeigt, welche mit Messungen an typischen Mittelspannungsantrieben mit Umrichterspeisung verglichen werden. Der Einfluss von Messwandlern, Spannungsteilern, Leistungsmessern und Messkarten zur Signalerfassung wird berücksichtigt. Die digitale Signalverarbeitung wird analysiert um den Unsicherheitsbeitrag zur Wirkleistungsmessung zu reduzieren. Es werden konventionellen Messwandler und -teiler im Mittelspannungsbereich bezüglich ihres Übertragungsverhal- tens sowie Messunsicherheiten untersucht. Die Ergebnisse der Untersuchungen verdeutlichen die Signifikanz eines performanten Messaufbaus. Des Weiteren werden Auswirkun- gen auf die Bestimmung der Effizienz aufgezeigt. Die Arbeit liefert einen wesentlichen Beitrag für weitere Standardisierungsprozesse. Der Umgang mit Messunsicherheiten der Wirkleistungsmessung wird betrachtet im Hinblick auf Energieeinsparpotenziale und deren effiziente Nutzung. Die Arbeit schlägt eine Möglichkeit vor, wie elektrische Antriebe in Energieeffizienzklassen kategorisiert werden können um diese vergleichbar zu machen.
