Investigation of the error in transferring the dimensions of the volt using a transportable stabilitron voltage standard

The results of an investigation of the characteristics of transportable voltage standards based on stabilitrons for the purpose of using them as standards of comparison when transferring the dimension of the unit of constant voltage in accordance with the State Standard GOST 8.027-2001 are presented.

The Calibration of dc Voltage Standards at NIST

This document describes the procedures used at NIST to calibrate dc voltage standards in terms of the NIST volt. Three calibration services are offered by the Electricity Division: Regular Calibration Service (RCS) of client standard cells at NIST; the Volt Transfer Program (VTP) a process to determine the difference between the NIST volt and the volt as maintained by a group of standard cells in a client laboratory; and the calibration of client solid-state dc voltage standards at NIST. The operational procedures used to compare these voltage standards to NIST voltage standards and to maintain the NIST volt via the ac Josephson effect are discussed.
