I'm using a digital electrical meter, the kind of meter you would have at you house measuring your monthly consumption for the electrical company. It is able so separate real power from reactive power and shows them in different fields, the reactive one is just marking zero because I haven't...
Yes, I actually have really big resistors that can dissipate that sort of power as heat, that is really not an issue, it's not very efficient but this is for test purposes only, not something permanent.
I read this:
Transformers - Transformers produce magnetic fields and therefore absorb...
Thanks!
I don't have an oscilloscope at hand, however, the purpose of the experiment is to test the meter's capability to measure the reactive power consumed by a load connected to it, I just need to connect something that consumes reactive power as a load.
Hi everyone! I always use this forum to consult but I had never had the need to post something.
I need to create an experiment in which I measure reactive power with a meter (see attachment).
I was thinking on using a transformer with a resistive load on it's secondary, but I'm not sure if...
