10 Fluke Corporation Fluke 430 Series Three-Phase Power Quality Analyzers
VA
Selectable total or fundamental apparent power display
Calculates apparent power using Vrms x Arms value over 10/12 cycle period
Total apparent power is root mean square of real and reactive power
VAR
Selectable total of fundamental reactive power display
Calculates reactive power as root of VA squared minus watt squared over 10/12 cycle period
Capacitive and inductive load is indicated with capacitor and inductor icons
Power Factor
Calculated watt/VA
Cos
j/DPF
Cos of angle between fundamental voltage and current
Unbalance
The supply voltage unbalance is evaluated using the method of symmetrical components according to
IEC61000-4-30
Flicker
According to IEC 61000-4-15 flickermeter—functional and design specification
Includes 230 V 50 Hz lamp and 120 V 60 Hz lamp models
Transient capture
Captures waveform triggered on signal envelope
Additionally triggers on dips, swells, interruptions and Amps level as specified by IEC61000-4-30
Inrush current
The inrush current begins when the Arms half cycle rises above the inrush threshold, and ends when the Arms half
cycle rms is equal to or below the inrush threshold minus a user-selected hysteresis value. The measurement is the
square root of the mean of the squared Arms half cycle values measured during the inrush duration. Each half-cycle
interval is contiguous and non-overlapping as recommended by IEC 61000-4-30. Markers indicate inrush duration.
Cursors allow measurement of peak Arms half cycle.
Mains signaling
Measurements are based on: either the corresponding 10/12-cycle rms value interharmonic bin or the rms of the
four nearest 10/12-cycle rms value interharmonic bins per IEC 61000-4-30
Limit setup for Monitor mode follows EN50160 “Meistercurve”
Time synchronization
Optional GPS430 timesync module provides time uncertainty
≤ 20 ms or ≤ 16.7 ms
2
for time tagging of events and
time aggregated measurements. When synchoronisation becomes unavailable, time tolerance is
≤ 1-s/24h
