Value is measured over 1 cycle, commencing at a fundamental zero crossing, and refreshed each
half-cycle. This technique is independent for each channel in accordance with IEC 61000-4-30.

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 apparent 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 ϕ / 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.
