APPLYING THE ADE9000 TO DIFFERENT METERING CONFIGURATIONS
The voltage and current waveforms of a polyphase system are
defined in the following equations:
To understand how these signals relate to each other, create a
phasor diagram following a convention using lagging phase
angles. Figure 56 shows a common polyphase metering
configuration, the 4-wire wye, with v
a
, v
b
, and v
c
defined in the
previous equations. Phase B lags Phase A by 120°, and Phase C
lags Phase A by 240°. Currents are shown at a power factor of 1,
PF = 1, where θ = 0 in the i
a
, i
b
, and i
c
expressions (shown
previously), and the current is in phase with the voltage.

The following figures show common metering configurations:
3-wire delta, 4-wire delta, and 3-wire residential and network.
The ADE9000 can also measure multiple single-phase circuits.

The phasor diagrams help to understand how the voltages and
currents are related in time. Figure 61 shows the 4-wire wye voltage
phase sequence in time, corresponding to the Figure 56 phasor
diagram and the equations for v
