Unless you can look at both voltage and current on an o'scope and compute phase angle between them, you are only measuring apparent power. Ken Javor Phone: (256) 650-5261 > From: Amund Westin > Reply-To: Amund Westin > Date: Mon, 12 Feb 2018 22:04:44 +0100 > To: > Sub

[PSES] Current measurement

2018-02-12 Thread Amund Westin
If you want to calculate the consumed power (W) in a 1-phase AC circuit, you can use a current clamp-on device to measure the current in one lead/wire and multiply with the applied voltage. But with such a current clamp on device, to we measure the apparent power (VA) or the real power (W)? Best r
