Technical Field

[0002] With the rapid development of the new energy vehicle industry, high-voltage DC fast charging has been widely installed around the world, and high-voltage and high-current DC energy meters have also been widely used. The calibration of high-voltage and high-current DC energy meters requires a meter body with a high voltage of up to 1500V and a current of 600A-800A. Such high voltage and high current pose great challenges to the production and calibration of energy meters. In addition to the need to provide a high-voltage and high-current platform, there are also requirements for the line diameter of the access product. Providing high voltage and high current to calibrate the DC energy meter has high requirements for equipment, safety, and site. In the actual operation process, the high current will cause the platform and line to heat up, which will also have a certain impact on the measurement accuracy of the meter body.
[0003] When the ambient temperature fluctuates, the characteristics of the electronic components inside the equipment will change, causing performance drift of key components such as voltage reference signals and sampling circuits. This drift will cause systematic errors in the measurement results, causing deviations between the energy metering value and the actual power consumption.
[0004] In addition, the traditional single-point calibration method is difficult to fully cover the error characteristics of the equipment under different temperature and load conditions, which limits the calibration effect. These problems make it impossible for the electric energy meter to maintain stable high-precision measurement performance over the entire temperature range, affecting the reliability and accuracy of the power system measurement.
