Abstract

This paper presents preliminary results of the APMP.EM-K6a key comparison of AC-DC transfer conducted during 2000 to 2003. The AC-DC voltage transfer difference of the travelling standard was measured at 3 V and selected frequencies from 1 kHz to 1 MHz that included those of the CCEM-K6a key comparison. Also discussed are the methods used to compare thermal voltage converters with different input connectors, and to link the results to the parent Consultative Committee on Electricity and Magnetism (CCEM) comparison.
