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.

Abstract High direct, alternating and impulse voltages as well as the corresponding currents play an important role in the electrical energy supply, but also in many other areas of physics and technology. The high-voltage apparatus and other equipment used for this purpose are subjected to a series of tests prior to commissioning, which allow limited information on their reliability and expected lifetime. The decisive factor is the proper execution of high-voltage insulation, which is based inter alia on the specific knowledge of the solid, liquid and gaseous insulating materials used. All tests require accurate measurement techniques and the use of calibrated measuring systems. In this context are terms and content such as quality assurance, calibration, traceability of the measurements to the SI units, measurement uncertainty, internationally agreed test specifications, accredited testing and calibration laboratories.
