Desenvolvimento de uma bancada automatizada de teste de medidores eletrônicos de energia elétrica para aferição da calibração

Abstract

This dissertation addresses the entire journey of research and development of an automated bench for calibrating electronic electricity meters (Device) and was conducted within the scope of projects of this class for industries under the jurisdiction of SUFRAMA, in the Industrial Pole of Manaus. In its initial chapters, it established the construction of its foundation in terms of the importance of this theme, as a technological construction research that deserved reporting and publication, its implications, and how this research should be conducted, with all the necessary methodological care while simultaneously meeting the objectives of the contracted research and development project delivery. The application of the New Product Introduction (NPI) concept was crucial in this delivery. The intermediate chapters presented all the steps for the system's construction, highlighting the attention points of its experimental configuration (parameters, variables, and specific logics) and then its extensive work on setting values in the unfolding of the computer program. All these sets, when combined, resulted in a functional system with its three main functional and validated operational components: the RS485 communication network, the communication with the three-phase source, and the entire test circuit of the Device. This is a set of significant results because, besides delivering the expected technological construction, there is a system capable of inferring from comparisons about the possibilities of error in each test, making the decision to repeat or separate the component, all within a fully traceable data management environment capable of fostering the learning of more complex patterns.
