Abstract:
The measurement of electrical energy is very important for Eletrobras Eletronorte, as this is their main product offered to its customers. This paper aims to implement improvements in the calibration process of this electricity meters used in measuring systems. These improvements presented achieve greater reliability in the calibration process, greater availability of measurement standards in the laboratory and the reduction of meter calibration time. This paper presents strategies to improve the calibration process of these meters, with results that characterize the effectiveness of the proposed improvements provided benefits related to quality of service and reducing the cost of calibration of the meters.
