A current-comparator technique for obtaining a load loss standard with adjustable loss tangent (or power factor) for in-situ calibration of transformer loss measuring system is described. The load loss standard, driven by the test voltage through a low-loss high-voltage compressed-gas-dielectric reference capacitor, simulates an inductive load which can be operated with load currents of up to 1000 A. For a 500 kV reference capacitor and a load current of 1000 A, the load loss standard simulates an equivalent inductive load with a rating of 500 MVA. Adjustment of the loss tangent (or power factor) is achieved by comparing the load current, using the current comparator, with in-phase and quadrature reference currents derived from the test voltage.
