Section 1: Meter functions What you’ll need In addition to a 55XX Series Multi-Product Calibrator, you’ll need a Fluke 179 Digital Multimeter or equivalent and a set of compatible test leads. Direct voltage The 55XX Series calibrators can output direct voltage from 0 to ± 1020 V. 1. -

Then turn the edit knob clockwise until the output display reads 33 V. Notice that the calibrator dropped into standby mode. This safety precaution protects the operator from inadvertently slewing the output to a potentially hazardous level. 7. Now press the key, located in the keypad to the left of the edit knob. - Page 7 3. Press the under WAVE sine. Notice the menu changes to WAVE tri for triangle wave. Also notice the output display has changed from a conventional rms voltage reading to peak-to-peak. 4. Press the under WAVE tri and the display changes to WAVE square.

4. Notice that the control window displays a range of lead com- pensation choices. Simply press the under COMP off to cycle through the choices—off, 2-wire and 4-wire. With compensa- tion off, the 55XX Series does not compensate for external lead resistances. - Page 9 output. The design of the 55XX Series calibrators’ synthesized capaci- tance circuit permits it to be used with meters that use both the dc charge/discharge method currently used on handheld dmms, as well as the ac technique used by RCL meters. 1.

Section 3: Power functions What you’ll need In addition to a 55XX Series Multi-Product Calibrator, you’ll need a Fluke 43B and a set of test leads. If you do not have access to a Fluke 43B, a general purpose watt meter with voltage and current inputs may be substituted. -

Power POWER QUALITY ANALYZER 5502A CALIBRATOR PREV STBY EARTH SCOPE TRIG MENU ENTER EDIT SETUP RESET FIELD MEAS ZERO MENU RECORD MULT • ENTER SHIFT POWER HOLD SAVE PRINT Direct power can be simulated into phantom loads from 0 to 20.9 kW. This is accomplished by sourcing voltage from one output and cur- rent from another. - Page 17 3. Entering voltage plus voltage is the same as entering voltage plus current, except that you substitute voltage for current. The voltage output on the AUX terminal is limited to 7 V (1.0 mV to 5 V in ac mode). If you were simulating a current clamp that outputs 1 mV per amp, this output would simulate 100 W (10 V + 10 A) ac at 60 Hz: 4.
- Page 18 6. Notice that in this mode, the 55XX Series calibrator’s control window displays a WAVE MENUS. When you press the under this display, WAVE MENU provides a range of choices, including harmonics, current and voltage waveforms and phase. First, we’ll demonstrate the waveform and phase control functions.
