2.2.4 CALIBRATION PROCEDURE FOR ROGOWSKI COIL SENSORS
Demo Code containing CE code that is compatible with Rogowski coils is available from TERIDIAN Semi-
conductor.
Rogowski coils generate a signal that is the derivative of the current. The CE code implemented in the
Rogowski CE image digitally compensates for this effect and has the usual gain and phase calibration
adjustments. Additionally, calibration adjustments are provided to eliminate voltage coupling from the sensor
input.
Current sensors built from Rogowski coils have relatively high output impedance that is susceptible to
capacitive coupling from the large voltages present in the meter. The most dominant coupling is usually
capacitance between the primary of the coil and the coil’s output. This coupling adds a component proportional
to the derivative of voltage to the sensor output. This effect is compensated by the voltage coupling calibration
coefficients.
As with the CT procedure, the calibration procedure for Rogowski sensors uses the meter’s display to calibrate
the voltage path and the pulse outputs to perform the remaining energy calibrations. The calibration procedure
must be done to each phase separately, making sure that the pulse generator is driven by the accumulated real
energy for just that phase. In other words, the pulse generator input should be set to WhA, WhB, or WhC,
depending on the phase being calibrated.
In preparation of the calibration, all calibration parameters are set to their default values.

Step 1: Basic Calibration: After making sure
VFEED_A
,
VFEED_B
, and
VFEED_C
are zero, perform either the
three measurement procedure (2.2.1) or the five measurement calibration procedure (2.2.2) described in the CT
section. Perform the procedure at a current large enough that energy readings are immune from voltage
coupling effects.
The one exception to the CT procedure is the equation for PHADJ—after the phase error,
φ
s, has been
calculated, use the PHADJ equation shown below. Note that the default value of PHADJ is not zero, but rather
–3973.

If voltage coupling at low currents is introducing unacceptable errors, perform step 2 below to select non-zero
values for

Step 2: Voltage Cancellation: Select a small current, I
RMS
, where voltage coupling introduces at least 1.5%
energy error. At this current, measure the errors E
0
and E

to determine the coefficient
