Explanation
In the normal measurement of U and I, the sum or difference of the instantaneous 
values (sampled data) of the voltage or current between the elements assigned to the 
target wiring unit for delta computation can be used to determine the measurement 
functions, 
Δ
U and 
Δ
I. This operation is called delta computation. For information about 
the equations involved, see appendix 10. The measurement period is the same as 
that described in “Measurement Period” in section 2.2, “Measurement Functions and 
Periods.”
Selecting the Target Wiring Unit for Delta Computation
The wiring units for delta computation can only be selected when three input elements 
are installed in the WT500 and one of the following wiring system combinations is used:
•
  Input elements 1 and 2 are set to 1P3W or 3P3W (
Σ
).
•
  Input elements 2 and 3 are set to 1P3W or 3P3W (
Σ
).
•
  Input elements 1, 2, and 3 are set to 3P4W or 3V3A (
Σ
).
Selecting the Delta Computation Type
You can select the delta computation type from the choices below. The selectable items 
vary depending on the selected wiring system.
Wiring System Selectable delta computation types
1P3W Difference or 3P3W>3V3A
3P3W Difference or 3P3W>3V3A
3P4W Star>Delta
3P3W(3V3A) Delta>Star
•  Difference
  Computes the differential voltage and differential current between two elements.

*  rms, mn, dc, rmn, and ac are delta computation modes (see the next page).
•  3P3W>3V3A
  The data of a three-phase, three-wire system (3P3W) is converted to the data of a 
three-phase, three-wire system with a three-voltage, three-current method (3V3A).
