EFFECT OF POLARITY REVERSAL
The network is still loaded with 100 kW On each phase. The load Power Factor (PF) is 1.
PF in phase L2 will show -1,00 due to reverse CT polarity. The result is that total measured power
displayed by the analyser is 100 kW.
Measured values are as follows:

EFFECT OF PHASE SWAPPING
The network is still loaded with 100 kW on each phase. The load Power Factor (PF) is 1.
PF in phases L2 and L3 will show -0,50 due to phase shift between voltages and currents which is
caused by CT swapping. The result is that total measured power displayed by controller is 0 kW.
Measured values are as follows:
