Star-Delta
Conversion from phase to phase in the phase voltages and determination of the active power
For a 3-phase 3-wire system only the phase voltages U12, U23, U31 and the phase currents I1, I2, I3 are amenable to measurement. With the help of star-delta conversionline, voltages can be determined in the inaccessible phase voltages, converted into the associated active powers. In analogy, the phase currents can be converted into the "chained" currents. From the values thus calculated, all other variables, e.g. harmonics, are derived. Distortions and asymmetries of power and consumers are considered correctly. The use of an external artificial neutral point is thus superfluous, but such can be connected, if required, at any time, in case the associated disadvantages (e.g. increased power dissipation) are accepted.
quality controls
All ZES ZIMMER power meters of the LMG series, the current sensors of PCT series and the voltage sensors of the HST series are carefully tested, adjusted and calibrated prior to shipment and are subject to strict quality controls.
