Inline Local Power
Further to our existing Ammeter Range this new generation of Digital Meters maintains the size of our Ammeter but includes readings for Power Factor, Volts, Watts and Amps in the form of a 4-digit display cycle. An arrow indicated which value is being displayed and using the readings it is possible to work out the efficiency rating of the power used.
Power Factor - This is the ratio of Real Power to Apparent Power. The latter is calculation of Volts RMS and Amps RMS. By comparing values on the meter, the energy provided can be compared to energy actually used. This is represented in the form of a number between 0 and 1, with 1 being 100% efficient and 0 being 0% efficient.
AMPS - displays Current Draw in Amps RMS
VOLTS - Displays Voltage RMS
WATTS - Displays power in Watts RMS. Value is integration of instantaneous Volts and instantaneous Current, referred to as Real Power.
