A portable Maxwell-Wien bridge as a part of the Korea Research institute of Standards and Science (KRISS) inductance standard has been developed. Two auxiliary resistive-capacitive networks (analogous to a "Wagner ground") provide excellent stability of the bridge balance and impose less strict requirements on the components of the networks. Removable capacitance and ac/dc resistance standards used in the bridge arms make it possible to realize the inductance unit in terms of capacitance and resistance in the frequency range 500 Hz to 3 kHz. Investigations of the standard and results of preliminary (trial) comparison with the Mendeleyev Institute for Metrology demonstrate that the bridge can be used for measurement of 10 and 100 mH inductance standards with an uncertainty within (1-3) μH/H at frequencies of 1 and 1.6 kHz. The use of this bridge as a constituent part of a transportable standard gives an opportunity to eliminate any uncertainty arising from instability of the standard inductors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
