VT/ CT ratio

CAUTION

  • The display range, when setting VT or CT ratio, is between 0.000 and 9999 (RMS voltage/current) and between 0.000k and 9999k (power). Please take the display range into consideration when setting VT or CT ratio. If setting extremely large or small VT or CT ratio, the LCD may show 0 or OL and wouldn't change.
  • Allowable input is 1100 V to AC voltage terminal and 1100 A to current sensor, regardless of selected VT or CT ratio. If output of the connected VT or CT exceeds these values, the LCD shows OL.

1.000

1.000

This setting is required if the system to be tested has external VT(s) or CT(s). The set VT/ CT ratio will be reflected to all the values measured during any measurements related to voltage and current.

While the LCD is showing VT or CT ratio, press the mode button. Then 4-digit value is displayed and the changeable digit starts blinking. Selectable range is between 0.001 and 9999.

Kyoritsu KEW 2062BT - CAUTION - 3

The digit selected to be changed will blink.

A short press of item switching button [◀▶] increases or decreases the value by 1. A long press of the item switching button changes digit position (to right or left). When pressing the button, while the last digit is blinking, not a digit position but a decimal point moves. A long press of mode button while changing values or digit position cancels the changes and restores the setting to 1.000.

Press the mode button to confirm the changes. The display returns to the selection screen.

Measurement using VT/ CT ratio

DANGER

  • This instrument is rated to 300 V AC for CAT IV, 600 V AC for CAT III, and 1000V AC for CAT II. With attention to the measurement category to which the object under test belongs, do not make measurements on a circuit in which the electrical potential exceeds these values.
  • Always clamp the secondary side of VT or CT (transformer).
  • Do not open-circuit the secondary side of CT while it is energized; otherwise, dangerous high voltage will be generated at the secondary side.

CAUTION

- When using a VT or CT, the declared measurement accuracy is not guaranteed. If using either or both of them, please take the accuracies of KEW 2062 / KEW2062BT, VT and CT, and also phase characteristics into consideration.

If voltage or current values of the measurement line exceed the max measuring range of KEW 2062 / 2062BT, the primary side value of the line can be obtained by measuring the secondary side using proper VT or CT for the specific line's voltage or current. See the diagram below.

Harmonics distortion factor THD-R/THD-F

There are two typical definitions used when dealing with Total Harmonic Distortion (THD). The two types of Total Harmonic Distortion are THD-F and THD-R. THD-F uses fundamental wave forms and THD-R uses total RMS values as a reference.

THD-F _ [%] = RMS harmonics(2nd to...) Fundamental RMS value(1st) × 100

THD - R _ [%] = RMS harmonics(2ndto...) Fundamental RMS value + RMS harmonics × 1 0 0

They both are figures of merit used to quantify harmonic levels in voltage and current waveforms; however, the THD-R measurement can be prone to misinterpretation which can easily lead to measurement errors when measuring larger distortions. That is, at low distortion levels, the difference between the two calculation methods - THD-F and THD-R - is negligible but at large distortion levels, THD-F can get more accurate results.

With the former measuring devices, accurate measurement of RMS fundamental wave (first order only), which is required for THD-F calculation had been difficult; therefore, THD-R has been commonly used. Although, recent devices can measure it accurately. So now in practice, THD-R is used for simple measurements and the distortion factor of THD-F, less susceptible to harmonics content rate against specified measurement accuracy, is commonly used.

Where investigating what causes harmonics on load side, THD-R measurement if often used, and for power quality control purpose, the THD-F is mainly used.

When setting the backlight to OFF, written in page 19, the auto-off function is disabled. In this state, backlight doesn't turn off when 5 min pass. To turn off the light, in this case, hold down the Item switching button [◀].

[Auto-power-off]

Note

- If the instrument is off with the function switch set to a measurement position, auto-power-off function might activate and turn off the instrument.

Except for Bluetooth communication, the instrument turns off automatically when 15 min. pass after the last key operation; discontinuous buzzer sounds 4 times. To turn on the instrument again, set the function switch to OFF and then set it to the desired measurement position.

[Auto-ranging – current]

Current range switches automatically according to the measured rms currents.

A range shifts to one upper range when the input exceeds 110% or 300% peak (absolute value) of the currently selected range and shifts to one lower range when the input drops 90% rms. While “MAX”, “MIN”, “AVG”, and “|PEAK| (peak value)” has been selected in the display mode, auto-ranging doesn’t work: the selected range is fixed and used.
