A method for evaluation of the linearity of both the ratio error and phase angle error in the current transformer(CT) comparison measurement equipment has been developed by employing the standard resistors with negligible AC-DC resistance difference less than $10^{-5}$. The non-reactive standard resistors for the linearity check of the system are used as the external burden connected with the secondary of CT under test. These burdens consist of nine standard resistors, with the nominal resistance of $0.01{\Omega},\;0.1{\Omega},\;0.2{\Omega},\;0.4{\Omega},\;0.6{\Omega},\;1{\Omega},\;2{\Omega},\;4{\Omega}$, and $10{\Omega}$. For linearity check, the developed method has been applied in the CT comparison measurement equipment belonging to the industry.

The control of the power conversion system (PCS) in a battery energy storage system has a challenge due to the existence of grid impedance. This paper studies an impedance model of an LCL-based PCS in the d-q domain. The feature of a PCS connected to a weak grid is unveiled by use of an impedance model and a generalized Nyquist criterion. It is shown that the interaction between grid impedance and the PCS destabilizes the cascaded system in certain cases. Therefore, this paper proposes a novel control method that adopts virtual resistors to overcome this issue. The improvement in the control loop leads the PCS to a more stable condition than the conventional method. Impedance measurement is implemented to verify the correctness of the theoretical analysis. Experimental results obtained from a down-scaled prototype indicate that the proposed control method can improve the performance of the PCS under a weak grid.

In this study, we fabricated plate-type shunt resistors with thermal stability by parallelly connecting metal alloy plates with positive temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) and carbon nanotube (CNT) plates with negative TCR. The metal alloy plates, which were prepared by alloying Cu and Mn with a composition of 91 wt% of Cu and 9 wt% of Mn, showed around $800ppm/^{\circ}C$ of TCR, and the CNT plates prepared from the CNT solution by using the vacuum filtration method showed around $-800ppm/^{\circ}C$ of TCR. The shunt resistor that was fabricated by stacking metal alloy plates and CNT plates in this work showed about $46.93ppm/^{\circ}C$ of TCR. Therefore, we conclude that a shunt resistor with low TCR can be realized by simply adjusting the TCR of the metal alloy only, because the TCR of the CNT plate has an identical value.

Resistance standards from 1 ${\Omega}$ to 100 $k{\Omega}$, with calculable frequency dependencies of up to 1 MHz, have been developed for the calibration of commercial inductance-capacitance-resistance (LCR) meters and impedance analyzers. The resistors are designed on the basis of single bifilar loops. The typical resistance change from dc to 1 MHz is from 200 to $800\;{\mu}{\Omega}/{\Omega}$. According to the measurement results, the frequency dependencies of the resistors are severaltimes lower than the measurement uncertainty of commercial LCR meters.

Ceramic resistors to be stable at high temperature were manufactured from using MgO, SiO2, SnO2, Bi2O3, and CeO2 by sintering in air at 125$0^{\circ}C$. Electrical resistivity with elevated temperatures was studied for the various system of the above oxides. The resistor, 1.0 MgO-1.0 SiO2-0.575 SnO2-0.005 Sb2O3-0.025 Bi2O3-0.013 CeO2 has the resistivity, (14.55$\pm$0.3)$\times$103 ohm in a temperature range from $25^{\circ}C$. to 80$0^{\circ}C$. It is concluded that the ceramics prepared by a dielectric compound and metal oxide semi-conductor has a good thermostability for electrical appliciations.

In this study, the liquid-vapor (L-V) separator equipped with liquid-level meter is developed. In the developed L-V separator, the flange is designed to be attachable so that the separator can be flexibly applied under any cases where the volumetric of L-V separator is varied by the system requirement. The leak-tightness between the attachable flange and the chamber is experimentally confirmed with the use of double groove indium wire sealing even under the high pressure up to 20 bar. In addition, the liquid-level meter is designed and fabricated to figure out the inner state of L-V separator. It consists with 19 carbon composition resistors in series. All resistors are separately calibrated in the temperature range from 77 K to 200 K. The performance of the L-V separator and the liquid-level meter is investigated with experimental tests, and the result is presented in this paper.

Many applications involving induction motors that are controlled using variable frequency drives require the ability to stop quickly. These applications include emergency stops, quick stopping of fans, centrifuges, presses, etc. The technique that is widely accepted in the industry for achieving quick stopping makes use of brake resistors in series with a power semiconductor switch. The switch-resistor combination (brake-unit) is applied across the dc bus. The fastest decelerating time achievable depends on the size of the resistors and the switch employed. In this paper, the authors propose a novel method of achieving quick stopping times without the use of any brake-unit. Experimental test results with and without this method on a large inertia motor-load combination show that the proposed stopping method is able to reduce the stopping time significantly compared to normal decelerated stop without the need for a braking unit.

In this study, we designed the temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) and heat radiation properties of shunt fixed resistors by adjusting the atomic composition of a metal alloy resistor, and fabricated a resistor that satisfied the designed properties. Resistors with similar atomic composition of copper and nickel showed low TCR and excellent shunt fixed resistor properties such as short-time overload, rated load, humidity load, and high temperature load. Finally, we expect that improved sensor accuracy will be obtained in current-distribution-type shunt fixed resistor for IoT sensors by designing the atomic composition of the metal alloy resistor proposed in this work.
