scope:

This part of IEC 1083 is applicable to digital recorders and digital oscilloscopes used for measurements during tests with high impulse voltages and high impulse currents. It specifies the measuring characteristics and calibrations required to meet the measuring accuracies and procedures specified in IEC 60-1. This part: - defines the terms specifically related to the digital recorders used for measurements during high voltage and high current impulse tests; - specifies the necessary requirements for such digital recorders to ensure their compliance with the requirements fot high voltage and for high current impulse tests; and- establishes the tests and procedures which are necessary to fulfil these requirements.
