Hi!
I'm on a delta connection measuring power factor with the ADE9000.
My setup has a 220/127 source and three 40.33 Ohms load on each phase
The datasheet(UG-1098) says this
"In a Blondel compliant 3-wire delta meter, only the overall power consumed by the system is meaningful; the individual phase powers are
not meaningful because a line current is multiplied by a line to line voltage
To obtain the overall power consumed by the system (active, reactive,
and apparent), add the contribution from Phase A and Phase C."
and indeed when measuring active power I get
P_A:1802.82 -- P_B: 5.75 -- P_C: 1812.86
PA+PC = 3615.68 (close to the 3600W I expected)
this also affects power factor as I get 0.87 on phases A and B (which in my understanding is right for a delta connection if I measure Line current and line to line voltage)
Is there any way or configuration i can try to get a power factor of 1 directly from the ADE9000? Or really the only way of getting power factor on this setup is by doing P/S?
what about the true power factor on each phase?
