Electrical Standards
The Electrical Standards Group maintains primary standards, performs calibrations, provides technical consultation, and maintains and upgrades its calibration facilities.
The program covers the electrical standards of voltage, resistance, capacitance, inductance, dc voltage ratio, low frequency ac voltage ratio, ac/dc difference, and ac resistance; and voltage, impedance, attenuation, power and noise at RF, and microwave frequencies up to 110 GHz.
The program disseminates values of these standards through a comprehensive calibration service and provides technical support for the Institute's Calibration Laboratory Assessment Service (CLAS) activities. These activities impact on most technical, manufacturing, transportation, military and utility sectors.
