Measures and records the power consumption and power quality of single-phase or three-phase balanced low-voltage circuits for installing and maintaining electrical systems
Measures current; voltage (including crest factor, peak value, and K-factor); energy demand; frequency; power factor; displacement power factor; harmonics and harmonic distortion; phase rotation; and active, reactive, and apparent power
Includes 1MB SD card for recording readings to track changes in the individual electrical properties of a power system or the overall power quality provided by the system.
Backlit, color LCD is readable in low light
Meets EN safety standard 61010 and is certified for category III installations up to 600V
The AEMC 8230 Power Pad Jr. single-phase power quality analyzer (also called a power meter) measures and records the power consumption and power quality of single-phase or three-phase balanced low-voltage circuits for installing and maintaining electrical systems. It measures voltage (including crest factor, peak value, and K-factor); energy demand; frequency; power factor; displacement power factor; harmonics and harmonic distortion; phase rotation; and active, reactive, and apparent power; and tracks events such as inrush current, sags and surges, overvoltage, and interruptions. The meter provides measurements in real time and comes with a 1MB (megabyte) SD card for recording readings to track changes in the individual electrical properties of a power system or the overall power quality provided by the system. Measurements can be viewed on the meter's backlit, color LCD, which is readable in low light. All parameters are measured simultaneously, for an overall picture of power quality in the system. The unit comes with two test leads, one red and one black, and alligator clips for taking voltage measurements, and a range of current sensors (sold separately) can be used with the meter to measure current or power. The meter comes with a USB cable for transferring data from the meter to the computer, and the included software provides a graphical user interface for working with data on a computer. The AEMC 8230 Power Pad Jr. is for use in production, research, and electrical testing applications.This true RMS (root mean square) sensing meter provides accurate readings when measuring linear or non-linear loads, where the current or voltage has a sinusoidal or nonsinusoidal waveform. The meter meets European Union (EN) safety standard 61010 and is certified for category III installations up to 600V, which covers items used with enclosed building circuit installations (such as service panel parts, branch circuits, and fixed installations tha
