Power Analysis
Power analysis provides automatic measurement for a number of
advanced measurement types such as power quality, harmonics,
ripple and inrush current. The Power analysis software is an
optional software module, for details please see page 192. Please
see the Power Analysis manual for more details on using the power
analysis software.
Power Analysis Overview
Power Quality Power quality measures the power of a signal
using the measured voltage and current of a signal.
Harmonics The harmonics function shows signal harmonics
up to the 400th harmonic. Harmonic tests can be
user defined and common harmonic standards
such as IEC 61000-3-2 can also be tested for.
Ripple The ripple function calculates the ripple and noise
of the waveform.
Inrush Current The inrush function automatically calculates the
first peak and second peak inrush current.
