Hello all,
I have a 1kw 3 phase 10 pole servo motor which is powered from 240 volt ac single phase supply via an invertek p2 controller/inverter. The motor is only operated for short high speed bursts and I would really like to be able to measure the power usage of the motor using formula and simple instruments such as a quality multimeter with peak hold rather than an expensive power analyser. I know the power usage of the controller on standby but can anyone offer me any suggestions for measuring the motor power consumption.
Thank you.
