Megger BITE 3 User Manual

Introduction
AVTMBITE 3 Rev 8 April 2014
3
ripple currents can be determined. The accuracy of the float and ripple currents
measurements is determined by the shunt value. See the Technical Specification
Section for accuracy.
The BITE 3 does more than take measurements; it also has an on-board, user-
configurable database replete with percent allowable changes. The BITE 3 works
in tandem with Power DB to configure the instrument and site/strings based on
user choices. The BITE 3 and Power DB work together to have the latest data
from Power DB downloaded into the instrument for superior on-board data
analysis. All BITE 3s can then have all of the necessary information and data
regardless of which BITE 3 took the last set of battery data.
