4.2 Measurands
4.2.1 Measurands in 1-phase Systems
The SENTRON PAC5100/5200 can measure and calculate quantities in 1-phase systems, Chapter 4.2.3
contains a detailed list of all measurands.
Measured and Calculated Quantities
The operational measurands alternating voltage V
P
,
alternating current I
P
, and frequency are measured. All
other operational measurands, harmonics, THDS (Subgroup Total Harmonic Distortion), and power and energy
types are calculated from the measured operational measurands.
