Abstract: A measuring device in which a non-electrical variable is converted into an electrical measurement signal via an electrical alternating current having a frequency, wherein the measurement signal contains a signal portion dependent on the non-electrical variable and is double the frequency, and a fault signal portion dependent on the alternating current and is at the frequency, where the measurement signal is pre-processed and digitized to generate a digital signal that is detected and processed to generate a measured value proportional to the non-electrical variable and to generate a fault signal value, wherein the fault signal value is utilized to normalize the measured value that is normalized in a normalizing stage, by forming the quotient using the square of the fault signal value, and is output as a normalized measured value.
