4.5. CALCULATION METHODS
The menu
=
defines:
The choice of breakdown or no breakdown of the non-active quantities,
The choice of unit of energy,
The choice of reference for the level of harmonics of the phases,
The choice of coefficients of calculation for the factor,
The choice of method of calculation of the long-term flicker.
4.5.1. CHOICE OF CALCULATION OF NON-ACTIVE QUANTITIES
The VAR menu is used to choose whether or not to break down the non-active quantities (powers and energies).
Figure 20: the Methods of Calculation of Reactive Quantities menu
Use the arrow keys (,) to select broken down or not.
Broken down: VAR corresponds to the fundamental reactive power and VAD to the distortion power.
Not broken down: VAR corresponds to the non-active power; VAD does not exist.
Then validate with the
key. The device returns to the Configuration menu.
Note: The modification is impossible if the device is recording, metering energy, and/or searching for alarms.
