20.5 HYSTERESIS
Hysteresis is a filtering principle used in Alarm mode (see § 12) and Inrush
Current mode (see § 11). Carefully adjusting the hysteresis avoids a repeated
change of state when the measurement oscillates around the threshold.
20.5.1 Voltage Swell Detection
At a hysteresis of 2 % for example, the reset point for a voltage swell detection
will be (100 % - 2 %), or 98 % of the threshold voltage
20.5.2 Voltage Dip and Voltage Interruption Detection
For a hysteresis of 2 % for example, the reset point in the context of dip
detection will be (100 % + 2 %), or 102 % of the threshold voltage.
