(Fluke Corp.: Everett, WA) -- Fluke Corp., a global provider of electronic test and measurement technology, has introduced new, more accurate electrical power standards designed to deliver stable, precise reference power and energy for use in calibrating electrical measurement equipment. 

The new Fluke 6105A and 6100B Electrical Power Standards provide the stability and accuracy required by users, including national measurement institutes, instrument service and calibration firms, electronics manufacturers, power utilities, and standards laboratories.  

The importance of accurate power and energy measurements has increased dramatically. Deregulation and the increasingly distributed nature of today’s power supply network mean that measurements must be made more frequently and with a higher degree of accuracy. Global moves to smart metering and smart grid technology require better measures of electricity. As accuracy specifications get tighter, measurement techniques become more important.  

The Fluke 6100B Power Standard comfortably meets the accuracy requirements for today’s power quality testing standards. In addition, it features improved accuracy and increased voltage channel current drive, for calibrating energy meters which take power from their voltage input.
