:MEASure Power Commands
:MEASure:FACTor
Command Syntax
:MEASure:FACTor [<source1>][,<source2>]
<source1>, <source2> ::= {CHANnel<n>}
<n> ::= 1 to (# analog channels) in NR1 format
The :MEASure:FACTor command installs a power factor measurement on screen.
The <source1> parameter is the channel probing voltage and the <source2>
parameter is the channel probing current. These sources can also be specified by
the :MEASure:SOURce command.
Power factor is a measure of power quality. It is the ratio of the actual AC line
power to the apparent power:
Real Power / Apparent Power
Query Syntax
:MEASure:FACTor? [<source1>][,<source2>]
The :MEASure:FACTor query returns the measured power factor.
Return Format
<return_value><NL>
