OMICRON 165
Using the Quick Test feature
10.10 Reactance measurement
This is a predefined measurement type, intended especially for the quick
measurement of reactances.
To select the Reactance measurement type, use the cursor key to move the
cursor to the Measurement Type field in the CT-Quick card and then press the
React. soft key.
Figure 10-21: CT-Quick card and Results card for reactance measurement
For the Reactance measurement type, the CT-Quick card holds the following measurement quantities:
The following values are displayed in the Results Reactance card:
Table 10-15: Parameters for Reactance measurement type
Parameter Description
Output The output signal type is fixed to "AC".
U/I Operating mode of the internal signal generator: voltage or current source. Fixed to
"Voltage".
Amplitude RMS voltage of the output signal. Adjustable by the user.
Possible values: 0 to 40V.
Default: 1.00V.
f Frequency of the output signal. Adjustable by the user.
Possible values: 5.0 to 400.0Hz or soft keys 16.7Hz, 50Hz, 60Hz or 400Hz.
Default: 400Hz
Table 10-16: Values displayed for Reactance measurement type
Value Description
OUTPUT Internally measured RMS current value and phase of the output signal.
SEC RMS value of the voltage measured at input SEC.
This input is considered as the phase reference, therefore the phase is always 0.
PRIM Not used for reactance measurement.
Rs Serial resistance, calculated from the output signal and the voltage measured at input
SEC.
Xs Serial reactance, calculated from the magnitude and phase angle of the output signal
and the voltage measured at input SEC.
