Shows the voltage and current phase
sequences.
4. Press to exit the selected test display mode.
5. Press again to return to the main Setup menu.
The voltage and current inputs must be greater than 5% of nominal for the test to operate reliably.
Voltage and current phase displays show the phase relationships of the inputs. To obtain the
correct power readings, the phase sequences can be either ‘123’ or ‘132’ but must be the same for
both current and voltage.
To obtain phase indications, the measured phase relationships must be within the following
parameters. If, for instance, a current transformer were to be reverse connected, the phase of the
measured current for that phase would be out be 180° out and the display would indicate a current
phase error.
Three-phase four-wire mode
Measurements are referenced from L1.
Voltage:
For the voltage sequence test, the phase of L2 relative to L1 must be within the window
240° ± 48° and L3 relative to L1 must be within the window 120° ± 48° to record the sequence
V123.
Alternatively, the phase of L2 relative to L1 must be within the window 120° ± 48° and L3
relative to L1 must be within the window 240° ± 48° to record the sequence V132.
The display shows ‘V1--‘ if a voltage phase is outside these parameters.
Current:
For the current sequence test, the phase of I1 relative to L1 must be within the window
0° ± 48°, I2 relative to L1 must be within the window 240° ±°48°, and I3 relative to L1 must be
within the window 120° ± 48° to record the sequence i123.
Alternatively the phase of I1 relative to L1 must be within the window 0° ± 48°, I2 relative to L1
must be within the window 120° ± 48°, and I3 relative to L1 must be within the window
240° ± 48° to record the sequence i132.
The display shows ‘I --‘ if a current phase is outside these parameters.
Three-phase three-wire mode
Measurements are referenced from L1-L2.
Voltage:
For the voltage sequence test, the phase of L2-L3 relative to L1-L2 must be within the window
240° ± 48° and L3-L1 relative to L1-L2 must be within the window 120° ± 48° to record the
sequence V123.
Alternatively, the phase of L2-L3 relative to L1-L2 must be within the window 120° ± 48° and L3
relative to L1-L2 must be within the window 240° ± 48° to record the sequence V132.
The display shows ‘V1--‘ if a voltage phase is outside these parameters.
