Abstract
Increasing demands for traceable, accurate measurements of power and power quality (PQ) parameters have resulted in an intensive metrology research effort in this area. This paper describes the objectives and so far achieved results of the EURAMET EMPIR Project TracePQM (15RPT04), jointly founded by the European Union and the participating countries. The overall goal of this project is to develop an open, modular, and well documented metrology grade system for measurement of power and PQ parameters by means of digital sampling techniques available to everyone and to increase research capacity in this area.

Introduction and progress in theEMPIR project TracePQM: Traceability Routes for Electric Power Quality MeasurementsTo cite this article: V Nováková Zachovalová et al 2018 J
Conventional power measurements based on the thermal converters provide information only about the root-mean-square (RMS) value which is not sufficient for power quality (PQ) measurements [1], [2], [7], it is necessary to design new measurement setups based on alternative measurement techniques
Several national metrology institutes (NMIs) have developed metrology grade power and PQ measurement systems based on sampling techniques, e.g. [3], [6], most of the NMIs have not finished this task yet
Summary
Conventional power measurements based on the thermal converters provide information only about the root-mean-square (RMS) value which is not sufficient for PQ measurements [1], [2], [7], it is necessary to design new measurement setups based on alternative measurement techniques. The developed open source software (SW) and good practice guide will be publicly available for all interested parties, such as NMIs, calibration labs, industry, universities or even individuals. They will serve both as a quick starting point for a development of an expandable sampling power and PQ measurement system and as a reference design to speed up the design of new highly specialised sampling systems
