Measuring Instantaneous Values
The CW120/121 power meters have two modes for measurement:
1. Instantaneous value measurement: Measures the rms voltages and
rms current of individual phases, and power, reactive power, power factor,
and frequency.
2. Electric energy measurement: In addition to the values in the
instantaneous value measurement mode, measures the electric energy.
Measurement is performed continuously and integration is started and
stopped by using the
keys.
This section describes instantaneous value measurement.

Measurement Procedure
1. Perform safety checks
with reference to Chapter 3, “Precautions for Safe Measurement.”
2. Turn on the power to CW120/121
with reference to Chapter 4, “Connecting Power Supply and Turning
Power On/Off.”
3. Perform wiring
with reference to Chapter 5, “Wiring.”
4. Set the ranges and wiring method
with reference to Chapter 6, “Setting Ranges and Wiring Method.”
5. Set measurement conditions
with reference to Chapter 7, “Making Settings.”
6. Measure instantaneous values.
