n
Order of the harmonic
U
n
Voltage of the n-th harmonic
U
1
Voltage of the fundamental component
N
40, for SICAM P: 21
M
n
Harmonic (n-th order) of voltage or current
M
1
Fundamental component of voltage or current
It is possible to derive the result from the harmonic M
1
and the RMS value M
ges
of the distorted
measured quantity. With the root „H“ from equation 8:
Equation No. 8:
M
ges
: RMS value of the distorted measured quantity U or I
M
1
:
RMS value of the fundamental component of the measured quantity
Inserting the values into the equation results in:
Equation 9:
Inserting 1/M1 into the root results in:
