Could antone assistme in showing how the total power factor (pf), KVA, KW and KVAr is calculated when the test that was done on the power system was done using a Fluke 345 power analyser. The analyser is unable to carry out measurement of the three phases simultaneously.

If you make three measurements, one for each phase relative to neutral, you can add the KVA, KW and KVAR for each phase to give the total for the three phases.
The power factor is the average of the three power factor readings. Best regards, Mark. -------------------- Mark Empson administrator
