POWER MEASUREMENT
Example:
1.) A balanced 3ɸ load has a line current of 130 A @200 V line to line
and 0.862 lag pf. If two wattmeter are used to measure power being
drawn by the system, what are the wattmeter readings?
3.) Given two wattmeter are connected at line a and line c. If VL = 230
power drawn by the load supplied from 500 V, 3ɸ source. Find the
impedance of the load if it is connected ∆.
Other Power
Measurement
Example
1.) Two wattmeter method is used to test 25 Hp, 230 V, 1800 rpm, 60 Hz,
3ɸ,I.M. When the line voltages are 230 V, one wattmeter reads 13400 W and
the other is 7400 W. Determine the motor pf and the line current it draws.;
2.) A wound rotor motor, 7.5 Hp, 230 v, 3ɸ takes a line current of 18.4 A when
operating at an efficiency of 88%. Calculate the indication of the wattmeters
connected to measure the power by:
a.) Potential Lead Shift Method
b.) Artificial Neutral Method
c.) T-Method
3.) A 3ɸ feeder corries, two lagging balanced loads. The power
absorbed by each is measured by two wattmeters method giving the
following readings
