2.3 Flicker
An EPM 9650 meter with Software Option A (base configuration) provides Flicker
Evaluation in Instantaneous, Short Term and Long Term Forms. An EPM 9650 meter
with Software Option B provides EN50160 / IEC 61000-4-15 Power Quality
Compliance. See Chapter 12 for a detailed explanation of the Flicker and Power
Quality Compliance functions.
