AMPROBE
8.7.
"ENERGY" FUNCTION
This function permits to display the values of the active powers, capacitive and inductive
reactive powers, power factor and cosϕ. Furthermore, the instrument is able to measure
directly (see 8.7.2) the values of the energies and the values of the capacitive and
inductive reactive energies.
8.7.1. Symbols
The position ENERGY has only one working mode:
METER
This mode will be described in detail in the next paragraphs.
The symbols used are described below:
Symbol
Description
P1
Active power
Q1
Reactive power
S1
Apparent power
pf1
Power factor
dpf1
cosϕ
Ea1
Active energy
Eri1
Inductive reactive Energy
Erc1
Capacitive reactive Energy
The symbols "i" and "c" stand for reactive powers (Q) and energies (Er) inductive and
capacitive respectively.
