Calibration with Three Measurements
The simplest calibration method is to make three measurements. Typically, a voltage measurement and two Watt-hour (Wh)
measurements are made.
If the voltage measurement has the error EV and the two Wh measurements have errors E0 and E60, where E0 is measured
with φL = 0 and E60 is measured with φL = 60. These values should be simple ratios—not percentage values. They should be
zero when the meter is accurate and negative when the meter runs slow. The fundamental frequency is f0. T is equal to 1/fS,
where fS is the sample frequency (2520.62Hz). Set all calibration factors to nominal: CAL_IA = 16384, CAL_VA = 16384,
PHADJ_A = 0.
From the voltage measurement, we determine that
1.Î AXV = EV + 1
We use the other two measurements to determine φS and AXI.

cos(60)
= AXV AXI cos(φS ) + AXV AXI tan(60) sin(φS ) − 1
Combining 2a and 3a:
4. E60 = E0 + (E0 + 1) tan(60) tan(φS )
5.
tan(φ S

E60 − E0
(E0 + 1) tan(60)

Now that we know the AXV, AXI, and φS errors, we calculate the new calibration voltage gain coefficient from the previous ones:
