An amazing story!

Every story starts somewhere. The story of the Chauvin Arnoux company as an inventor and manufacturer of measurement

instruments since 1893 is rich in developments and innovations. Today, its products bear witness to and reflect the sociological

and technological changes and the industrial innovations which marked the previous century. A fascinating story that explains why

and how Chauvin Arnoux's image and personality evolved... in two colours.

Blackand yellow

It is often said that at the root of knowl-edge is language, or that the origin of

an innovation was an idea,… yet it is the individual, the person, who is really the source

of knowledge and discoveries. This also applies to electricity, which was not invented in the 19th

century, but discovered in the 6th century BCE by a Greek philosopher and scientist named Thales, the first person to note the electrostatic properties of amber.

From the beginning of the 19th century, there was the yellow of amber. Then man-ufactured goods began to include the yellow of brass and copper, materials used in measurement instruments, either for the casings of gal-vanometers or for the connec-tions of electrical measure-ment instruments. Beige was also introduced with the use of varnished wood in the casings, while black was reserved for the

instruments' dials. Right from the start in 1893, the contrast between black and the yellow of varnished wood soon became the norm for

the measurement instruments pro-duced by Chauvin Arnoux.

In a relatively short time, between 1900 and 1936, with the development of new

technologies and new techniques for work-ing materials, yellow brass began to be used

with black Bakelite, eventually spreading to

nearly all our instruments. Already known for its sense of design and the combination of its original colours; yellow brass and black, in its measurement instruments, Chauvin Arnoux reproduced these col-ours in its first corporate logo in 1927.

In the 1940s, many measurement instruments only used black or black and the silver-grey of ferrous metals, sometimes painted.

Chauvin Arnoux adapted its original visual identity to suit the fashions of the time, which also cor-responded to technical criteria for safety, life-span extension or weight considerations linked to the metal and the manufacturing process used.The 1950s saw the arrival of rubber-like materials, used for the bases of portable instruments, and subsequently for the shockproof sheaths made of black neoprene, first designed and patented by Metrix® and Chauvin Arnoux in 1958. These shock-proof sheaths later became widely used on the handheld instrument market.

With the 1970s came plastics technology. This was when Chauvin Arnoux launched worldwide its first innovative products made

of black and yellow plastic: the CdA 8 tester in 1979, the

CdA 600 multimeter clamp in 1982 , followed by the whole range. Some earth testers, such as the Terca in 1985 and the Prowatt wattmeters in 1989, also had a yellow casing. The combination of yel-

low and black for on-site equipment began to spread

with its use for safety sig-nage and for identify-ing hazardous areas on site. This encouraged Chauvin Arnoux to

launch the well-known IMEG 500 or ISOL1000 series in Europe and then in the United States with

the company's two colours.

The MAN’X 500 series launched by Chauvin Arnoux, the very first multimeters made of a flexible material, further strengthened the company's visual identity.At about the same time, Metrix launched several products with yellow casings and black platens, including the instruments in its MX 44 series (1988) followed by the MX 51 series.

Over the years, Chauvin Arnoux has devel-oped its visual identity across all its product ranges: its multimeters, wattmeters, mego-hmmeters and installation testers all bear the company's colours.

One last remark about colours: while yellow is always seen as the colour of the sun and of certain kings or emperors in Asia, it is not so widely known that in physics, black is the symbol of a "black body", meaning a system which absorbs all the light it receives. Black and yellow? A historic tandem for Chauvin Arnoux which was the first company to use

this pairing for its corporate visual identity in the early 20th century when it first designed its logo in 1927.

Standard

IP RATINGThe IP (ingress protection) rating corresponds to the instrument's degree of protection against penetration by solid bodies (1st digit) and against penetration by water (2nd digit). The higher the rating, the greater the protection. A product without protection corresponds to a rating of IP00 (minimum rating), whereas a product totally protected against solid bod-ies and liquids is rated IP68 (maximum rating).

IEC 61010This international standard defines the safety rules for electrical measure-ment, control and laboratory instruments. It guarantees that the instru-ments' design and construction ensure protection of users and their environment against: electric shocks, burns, mechanical hazards, spread of fire from the instruments, excessive temperatures, etc.

For some types of instruments, this standard is completed by special prescriptions.

Example: the IEC 61010-2-010 standard specifies the special require-ments for laboratory equipment used for heating materials.

EN 50160The NF EN 50160 standard was created to characterize the quality of the voltage supplied. This standard presents the different types of voltage disturbances observed at the point of delivery to the customer, depending on the wave form, the voltage level, the frequency and the unbalance of the three-phase system. It lists the parameters to be monitored and the duration of monitoring.

IEC 61000-4-30The IEC/EN 61000-4-30 standard defines the measurement methods for each parameter defined in the EN50160 standard, as well as the measure-ment conditions and procedures.

IEC 61557This international standard specifies the electrical safety characteristics of 1,000 Vac and 1,500 Vdc low-voltage transmission networks. It defines all the requirements for combined performance measurement and moni-toring systems which measure and monitor the electrical parameters in electrical transmission networks. These requirements also define the per-formance levels in single-phase or three-phase AC or DC networks with rated voltages less than or equal to 1,000 Vac or 1,500 Vdc

NF C 15-100This is the official safety standard concerning the protection of low voltage electrical installations, the protection of people and the ease of managing, operating and upgrading the installation. Installations in housing (house or apartment) must comply with this standard.In particular, NF C 15-100 defines the protective systems, RCD circuit-breakers, wiring, number and type of lighting points and number of power outlets in each type of room (bathroom, kitchen...), etc.

Technical remindersNumbER oF CouNTSThis is one of the fundamental specifications of instruments using analogue-digital conversion. In general, it allows you to define the measurement range and the resolution on the basis of the value chosen for the rated calibre.

mEASuREmENT RANGEThis represents the limits within which the digital instrument complies with all its specifications, without the readings being subject to a level of error greater than the maximum error tolerated.It is defined by a minimum measurable value and a maximum measurable value.

RATEd CAlIbREThe calibre of an instrument is the value of the quantity to be measured which corresponds to the upper limit of the measurement range. For example, for an ammeter, if the upper limit is 5 A, it is described as having a 5 A calibre.

RESoluTIoNThis is the smallest difference of value that can be measured. It is also the value of a measurement count or unit of quantification usually called the "unit".

mINImum mEASuRAblE vAluE (oR ThREShold)This is the smallest value measurable. For an instrument offering sufficiently linear conversion, it may be equal to the resolution.

This is not always the case, however, and the manufacturer should indicate it clearly, as this minimum value also depends on the accuracy and, in particular, on the constant error.

If the constant error is too high, it becomes impossible to measure very low values accurately.

RmS: RooT mEAN SquARE vAluEBy definition, the effective or RMS value of a current is the DC current value which would cause the same heating when flowing through a resistor.

In the specific case of a sinusoidal quantity, application of the above equation gives:

The amplitude of a sinusoidal voltage (Vpk) or current is √2 times its RMS value (Vpk = √2 Vrms).The RMS value is essential for industrial applications because it is used to define a current.

Thus, for a 230 V/50 Hz network:Vrms = 230 V; Vpeak = 325 V; Vaverage = 207 V

An "average value" measurement instrument measures the average value of a sinu-soidal current after rectification and filtering and then displays the effective value after applying a coefficient of 1/0.9 = 1.111.This indirect measurement method is simple and accurate but it only gives a true value for undistorted sinusoidal currents as it only tolerates a distortion level of a few per cent.This is why "RMS" measurement instruments are increasingly widely used. They are based on direct measurement principles: the thermal method (mainly used in metrology) and analogue or digital calculation methods requiring sophisticated electronic components.

PEAk vAluE – CREST FACToRThe crest factor is defined as follows:CF = V peak / V RMSThis information can be used with the RMS value to assess a signal's distortion in qualitative terms.For a sinusoidal signal, CF = √2 = 1.414

Recommendation:When we speak of a 230 V mains network, it is an "effective" or RMS value.For a long time, the linear loads (incandescent lamps, heating) connected to the network caused only slight distortion.The spread of non-linear loads (switching power supplies, light dimmers, variable speed drives or compact fluorescent lamps) calls this approach into question as "pure" sinusoidal mains supplies are increasingly rare.Conventional measurement instruments (calculating the effective value on the basis of the average value) are by definition only accurate with sinusoidal currents. Otherwise, the measurement error may reach 50 %!It is therefore advisable to opt for "RMS" measurement instruments which are capable of giving correct measurement results whatever the waveform of the current or voltage.

SAFETy RulES ANd Good PRACTICE:- Use measurement instruments and accessories which are suitable for the applica-

tion and the measurement conditions.

Give preference to CAT IV instruments:

• This means that it can withstand up to 50 % higher overvoltages than a CAT III product

• CAT IV 1,000 V offers protection against electric shocks up to 12,000 V, while CAT IV 600 V offers protection up to 8,000 V.

• If a lower-CATegory instrument is used, you must first check that the instal-lation is equipped with protective systems (disconnecting switch, circuit breaker, etc.) that operate correctly and are in good condition. This is often the case… but not always!

• For external installations which may be temporary or upstream of the protec-tive systems, CAT IV instruments are mandatory.

- It is the weakest element which defines your level of protection. If you use acces-sories whose category or voltage is lower than your measurement instrument's, you reduce the overall safety level offered by your measurement system.

- Use accessories that are in perfect condition. Any accessory with even the slightest defect must be replaced immediately, as it can no longer guarantee your safety.

- Fuses are protective devices. If they are replaced by cheaper models or, even worse, by a metal element (copper wire, aluminium foil, etc.), they will no longer protect you against possible voltage surges on the installation.

Measuring currentsmEASuRING AlTERNATING CuRRENTThe transformer

The principle used for measuring an AC current is usually the same as for a trans-former. A transformer comprises two separate windings, the primary B1 and the secondary B2, wound around an iron (Fig. 1).

Fig. 1: When a current l1 is applied to the primary B1, it creates an induced current I2 in the secondary B2.

One of the properties determining the quality of the induced current is the quality of the iron carrying the electromagnetic flux.

In mathematical terms, the relation representing this principle can be written as fol-lows: l1N1 = l2N2.

In practice, the primary winding N1 is made up of the cable in which we want to measure the current that is flowing.

This winding therefore comprises a single loop, N1 = 1 (Fig. 2). The mathematical relation becomes: l1 = I2N2 or l2 = 1 / N2 x l1Note: The transformation ratio is defined by the ratio between the current measured and the output signal from the clamp. If N2 = 1000, the equation is as follows: l1/I2

=N2/1 =1,000/1. We will therefore refer to it as a clamp with a ratio of 1,000/1.

Rogowski coilsAmpFLEX™ sensors are transformers based on the Rogowski coil principle. The conductor to be tested acts as the primary, while the secondary is formed by a special winding on a flexible, non-metallic support. This assembly is connected by a cable to an electronic processing unit and a power supply.

At its terminals, the Rogowski coil develops a voltage u proportional to the deriva-tive of the current:

where S = winding loop area n = number of loops r = core radius

This technology makes it possible to produce flexible sensors of varied lengths and allows you to measure AC currents up to several tens of kA at industrial frequencies.

mEASuRING dIRECT CuRRENTThe principle used to measure direct currents is the Hall effect. A current flowing in a conductor causes a magnetic field B. If the field B crosses a Hall-effect cell perpen-dicularly, a proportional voltage appears on these lateral surfaces (Fig. 3).

Fig. 3: The best way to measure currents in total safety is to choose a current clamp.

Multimeter clampsDrawing on its thorough knowledge of professional users' needs, Chauvin Arnoux, the inventor of the current clamp and the universal tester (multimeter), designs multimeter clamps that match your requirements.

To choose the best multimeter clamp for your needs, you need to determine:

1 – The applications for which it is intended

a - The environment: industrial, major tertiary, residential. This serves to deter-mine the installation category.

b – The voltage level encountered (in relation to the earth).A product that complies with the IEC 61010 standard for your installation's cat-egory and voltage will ensure maximum safety.

2a – The types of loads: non-linear or resistive,2b – The type of current measurement: AC & DC or AC only

This determines whether you need an instrument offering average-value measure-ments, True RMS measurements or measurements without a DC component.

3 – The necessary measurement range

4 – The type of operation: test or diagnostic. Measurement accuracy required, display resolution, etc.

5 – The other measurements or tests: frequency, capacitance, continuity and diode test, etc.

6 – The analytical functions required: Min, Max, Peak, THD, etc.

7 – User comfort:- Backlighting, display dimensions and contrast- Handling- Accessories proposed (bag, etc.)
