A new device and technique have been developed by National Institute of Standards and Technology researchers for measuring "breakdown" voltage -- the voltage required to produce electrical arcs when ...

Scientists have developed a sensor for measuring the strength of electric fields, which is much smaller, simpler and less prone to distortion than comparable devices. TU Wien has developed a sensor ...

A team of scientists has revealed how a single quantum device can accurately measure the three fundamental units of electricity—the ampere (unit of electrical current), the volt (unit of electrical ...

Measurement triangle: this quantum metrology triangle shows the relations between the three electrical units volt, ohm and ampere and the involved fundamental constants. Researchers at PTB are ...
