Figure 11. Measuring a Power Source, Method 1
Configure the channel as follows -
•
This connection method is suitable for most applications.
•
At high frequencies, the wiring length between the source and the
current and voltage measurement points should be kept as short as
possible to avoid inductive and capacitive losses causing inaccuracies.
•
Optionally, set
Wiring Impedance
to (W1 + W2) ohms. Include all
wiring resistances between the source and the points at which the
voltage is measured in the entered value for wiring impedance.
•
Set
V Burden Compensation
to YES.
•
If the current measurement terminals are reversed, then set
Reverse
Current
to
YES
, otherwise set to
NO
.
•
If the voltage measurement terminals are reversed, then set
Reverse
Voltage
to
YES
, otherwise set to
NO
.
