Notes on the use of precision dividers

Precision dividers
Resistive or capacitive precision dividers with high accuracy can be connected to the voltage
input UF2. These precision dividers are connected via shielded coaxial cables. Kries offers the
following components for this purpose, please inquire separately:
• shielded coaxial cables in different lengths
• ohmic voltage dividers of type OAS for right-angle connectors with C-cones, symmetrical or
asymmetrical
• ohmic voltage dividers of type OKE for air-insulated switchgears
• capacitive precision dividers for asymmetrical right-angle connectors with shortened C-
cone (on request)

Cross calibration
Via a procedure patented by Kries, the exact voltage signal of the precision dividers can be
determined from a feeder (e. e.g., the transformer feeder) can be used as the reference
voltage for the other feeders. In the IKI-50_1F R2, an automated cross-calibration procedure
is integrated for this purpose, with which this adjustment can be carried out manually or at
specified time intervals. This makes it possible to realize a high degree of accuracy in voltage
measurement for the entire distribution network station.
