The objective of the project is to develop a test bench for three-phase smart industrial meters using LabView graphical interface and myDAQ (Data Acquisition Device) along with 60 kV High Voltage Measuring Unit (For High Voltage Testing). The DAQ system will record all three phase parameters in real time required to implement IEC 60521 standards. The product will deliver high-precision measurements of three-phase currents, voltages, harmonics analysis, Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT) analysis, total harmonic distortion, power factor, active and reactive powers, as well as calculations of other desired values. Smart meters are tested with linear and non-linear load for defined period of time and myDAQ system is fast enough to measure even small glitches in waveforms and record them using the graphical interface of the LabView. The test bench will provide industrial grade testing facility for smart as well as conventional digital and electromagnetic meters and will evaluate the performance of meters according to industrial standards using LabView and myDAQ system. Along with Project includes the development of Simulation of UET Lahore power system network in Power System Simulator for Engineering (PSSE) and perform PSSE analytical capabilities (load flow, contingency analysis etc.) on the network. The Single Line Diagram of the UET Network is developed in AutoCAD.
