NEUTRAL CURRENT
: Neutral current can be determined by two methods. One method
measures the current via the neutral CT input. The second calculates the neutral
current based on the three phase currents; using the instantaneous samples,

c

n
. If the sum of the phase currents does not equal 0, the result is the neutral
current. When using the CT input, the neutral current reading will be correct only if the
CT is wired correctly and the correct neutral CT primary value is entered. Verify neutral
current by connecting a clamp-on ammeter around all 3 phases. If the neutral current
appears incorrect, check the settings in

and verify the CT wiring.
•
CURRENT UNBALANCE
: Displays the percentage of current unbalance. Current
unbalance is calculated as:
(EQ 0.1)
where:
I
av
= average phase current = (
I
a
+
I
b
+
I
c
) / 3
I
m
= current in phase with maximum deviation from
I
av
,
Even though it is possible to achieve unbalance greater than 100% with the above
formula, the PQMII limits unbalance readings to 100%.
If the average current is below 10% of the
CT PRIMARY
setpoint, the unbalance reading
is forced to 0%. This avoids nuisance alarms when the system is lightly loaded. If the
simulation currents are being used, the unbalance is never forced to 0%.
