Synopsis

This book is an in-depth examination of the impact of power factor on the accuracy of a range of single-phase integrating wattmeters. The author explores the variations in the torque of different meter types, such as the commutator, induction, and mercury motor types, with changes in power factor and load. The investigation provides insights into the accuracy limitations of these meters, particularly on low power factors and varying loads. The author discusses potential methods to compensate for the observed inaccuracies and concludes by highlighting the significance of understanding these limitations for reliable energy measurement.
