<p>A method and apparatus for rapidly and continuously sampling AC voltage and current signals in a plurality of power distribution circuits. The sampled signals are then analyzed in a sine board computer to derive the number of fundamental electrical variables. These variables include frequency, RMS volts, RMS amps and a phase angular relationship between the voltage and currents in the system. The computer also performs calibration and compensation functions. From these fundamental variables, other useful parameters can be calculated such as watts, watt-hours, VARS, and power factor.</p> |
