All voltage measurements represent RMS values of the voltage magnitude over a 10/12-cycle time
interval. Every interval is contiguous, and not overlapping with adjacent intervals.

The instrument has internally 3 voltage measurement ranges, which are automatically selected
regarding to the nominal voltage.

Current measurement (magnitude of supply current)
Standard compliance: Class A (Section 5.13)
All current measurements represent RMS values of the samples of current magnitude over a 10/12-cycle
time interval. Each 10/12-cycle interval is contiguous and non-overlapping.

The instrument has internally two current ranges: 10% and 100% range of nominal transducer current.
Additionally, Smart current clamps models offer few measuring ranges, automatic clamp detection and
automatic range selection.
