With a very high measurement accuracy, 0.02% of reading, the WT3000 series power analzyers are well-suited for applications such as efficiency testing and engineering and R&D work on inverters, motor ...

The scope of this article is to introduce a method to measure the power factor in a 50 Hz alternating current transient. The circuit shall be a R-L type. By acquiring only the current wave and, ...

The instrument works on the principle of a combined bridge-vector-meter and it is capable of analyzing capacitive and inductive loads. HAEFELY HIPOTRONICS has launched the new high precision tan δ/ ...

Most facilities have power factor (PF) correction capacitors at the service, but those merely help you avoid a PF penalty on the electric bill. Those four big 400HP motors that drive your air ...

Standby power refers to the electric power consumed by electronic appliances while they are switched off or in a standby mode – but still connected and still drawing power. Fundamentally, standby ...

Low power factor reduces an electrical system’s distribution capacity by increasing current flow. Therefore, having a low power factor is inefficient and expensive. But what is power factor and what ...

16 December 2005 – Power Measurement, acquired by Schneider Electric in April 2005, today announced that as an integrated part of the Schneider Electric family, the company will operate as a global ...

When it comes to the most typical cause of poor power factor in a facility, motor inductance is a likely culprit. The problem worsens when motors are not loaded to their full capacity. Harmonic ...

Advanced power-line monitoring systems combine power-supply monitoring, load-balancing, protection, and metering functions. This allows the power utilities to efficiently deliver grid power while ...
