Line impedance measurement procedure
Select the Z LINE function using the function selector keys.
Set sub-function to Zline using UP / DOWN keys.
Select test parameters (optional).
Connect test cable to the instrument.
Connect test leads to the item to be tested (see Figure 5.31).
Press the TEST key to perform the measurement.
Store the result by pressing the MEM key (optional).
Figure 5.32: Examples of line impedance measurement result
Displayed results:
Z ............... line impedance
Isc ............ prospective short-circuit current
Lim ........... low limit prospective short-circuit current value
Prospective short circuit current is calculated as follows:
where:
Un ......... Nominal L-N or L1-L2 voltage (see table below),
ksc ........ Correction factor for Isc (see chapter 4.4.6 Isc factor).
Input voltage range (L-N or L1-L2)
