Three Phase Wattmeter
Three-Phase Wattmeter
Total power in a 3f circuit
is the sum of the powers of the separate phases. The total power could be measured by placing a wattmeter in each phase (Figure
12); however, this method is not feasible since it is often impossible to break into the
phases of a delta load. It also may not be feasible for the Y load, since the neutral point to which
the wattmeters must be connected is not always accessible. Normally, only two wattmeters are used in making 3f
power measurements.
Here are specifications which describe a three phase power
meter. SOURCE
