This thesis addresses the development and subsequent realization of a device, which enables a safe method of carrying out 4-wire resistance measurements. Within the scope of this work, such a method is needed in measuring temperatures of functioning transformers or similar coils installed in various devices. Such power delivery systems must not exceed certain temperature limits in normal operating conditions due to safety factors, which is why a precise and reliable method that guarantees correct results is needed. In carrying out of the mentioned measurement method, it is crucial that the measurement itself is not under way, while the measured device is operating as this would result in the destruction of the measuring instrument. Due to this fact, the goal of this thesis was to assure a safe way of conducting the measurement method.
The beginning consists of an explanation of standardization and testing procedures, which dictate the need for such a device. This is followed by a summary and the meaning of the measurement itself which is controlled by the developed device. The main part contains a presentation of the assembly, components and functionality of the device, while the latter part contains a presentation of measurement of a transformer along with a short explanation of induced voltages.
