Abstract :
A new construction principle of AC current shunts has been applied to a set of shunts for AC currents from 1 A to 20 A, 20 Hz-10 kHz. The completed set will also cover current ranges from 20 mA to 1 A. The shunts are stable and do not show excessive AC-DC amplitude or phase differences and can thus be calibrated to work as AC current and resistance reference standards up to 10 kHz.
