Note

THDI for currents < 5% of IE (measuring range) can have additional
uncertainties, or can be suppressed.

Harmonics up to 50th order are taken into account.

Flicker

Flicker is the visual impression of unsteadiness in a light source whose
luminance or spectral distribution changes over time. Flicker is logged in
accordance with the IEC 61000-4-15 standard. The short-term (st) flicker Pst

t

is logged over a default standard interval of 10 minutes, and is used to
calculate the long-term (lt) flicker Plt (by taking the sliding average of 12
short-term values). The interval value can be changed as needed in PQ Log.
