Analyzing Waveforms
Advanced Waveform Capture with ProVision
Waveform Capture data is often the most detailed information available in a PQ recording. Getting good data is not always easy, so it's important to glean all information possible from…
Ring Frequency, PF and CF from Waveform Capture
With the Point Table in the Waveform Capture function of ProVision, it is possible to estimate the ring frequency, phase shift, power factor, and crest factor of a waveform.
Understanding the Harmonic Analysis Report
Harmonics are distortions in the 60Hz voltage or current caused by non-linear loads on the system. Harmonics are of interest to utilities as they can cause damage to equipment, such…
Optimizing Waveform Capture Triggering
Waveform capture is the highest resolution data available for PQ analysis and is often crucial in solving tricky issues. Successfully triggering on the waveform doesn't have to be tricky, though.…
Harmonics from Periodic Waveform Capture
Harmonics are usually recorded as interval (stripchart) data in PMI recorders. Each desired harmonic is recorded as a min/ave/max stripchart trace, for each desired voltage and current channel. Although this…
Transient Capture with the Vision and Revolution
Capture high-speed, high-voltage transients with the Revolution and Vision, using the optional transient capture system. Transient capture uses 1 MHz sampling for voltage, giving a 1 microsecond sample window, and…
Waveshape Triggering for Waveform Capture
A new method of triggering waveform capture in the Revolution and Vision is introduced, designed for capturing changes in power line waveform shape.
