Measurement
Functions
All the direct measurements are based on fundamental frequency
values. (The exceptions are frequency and instantaneous current
for arc protection.) The figure shows a current waveform and the
corresponding fundamental frequency component, second
harmonic and rms value in a special case, when the current
deviates significantly from a pure sine wave.
