Power Calculation Modes
The power calculation mode option allows you to change the method for
calculating reactive and apparent powers in presence of high harmonics.
The options work as follows:
When the reactive power calculation mode is selected, active and
reactive powers are measured directly and apparent power is
calculated as:
This mode is recommended for
electrical networks with low harmonic
distortion, commonly with THD < 5%
for volts, and THD < 10% for currents.
In networks with high harmonics, the
second method is preferable.
When the non-active power calculation mode is selected, active
power is measured directly, apparent power is taken as product S
= V x I, where V and I are the RMS volts and amps, and reactive
power (called non-active power) is calculated as:
Configuring Digital Inputs
The PM135 can be provided with four to twelve (depend on DI/O module
type) digital inputs that can be linked to control setpoints to give an
indication on input status change (see Configuring Alarm/Control
