Introduction
The 1736 and 1738 Power Loggers (the Logger or
Product) is a compact device for energy and power quality
surveys. With a built-in touch screen and USB flash drive
support, it is easy to configure, verify, and download
measurement sessions without the need of a computer at
the measurement location. All illustrations in this manual
show the 1738.
The Logger makes these measurements:
• Basic Measurements: Voltage (V), Current (A),
Frequency (Hz), Phase rotation indication, 2 dc
channels (supports user-supplied external sensor for
other measurements such as temperature, humidity,
and air speed)
• Power: Active Power (W), Apparent Power (VA),
Non-active Power, (var), Power Factor
• Fundamental Power: Fundamental Active Power (W),
Fundamental Apparent Power (VA), Fundamental
Reactive Power (var), DPF (CosΦ)
• Energy: Active Energy (Wh), Apparent Energy (VAh),
Non-active Energy (varh)
• Demand: Demand (Wh), Maximum Demand (Wh),
Energy costs
• Harmonics: Harmonic components up to and
including the 50th and Total Harmonic Distortion of
Voltage and Current
Fluke software, Energy Analyze Plus, is included with the
Product for a thorough energy analysis and professional
report of the measurement results.
