These values are calculated based on the formulas kW33W = PF33W = kVA33W = kWRS(L1L2) + kWTS (L3L2) kW 33W kVA 33W kW233W - kVAR233W · To obtain a more accurate kVAR value when the power factor (PF) is greater than 0. 91, use the 33W function. · The kVA value is shown on the main display and the kVAR value is shown on the upper display. · Positive kVAR (+) indicates a capacitive load, while negative kVAR (-) indicates an inductive load. Note: The "+" sign on the jaw must face the power source for correct measurement. To measure AC+DC Apparent and Reactive Power (kVA/kVAR) in a single phase 3-wire system See section on 13W AC+DC Power Measurements kVAR33W = kVARS(L1L2) + kVARTS(L1L2) To Measure AC+DC Power Measurements in a three phase 3-wire system · Set rotary switch to 33W without jaws clamping onto any wire. · The LCD display will show a flashing R to indicate that the meter is ready for the first measurement. · If the watt reading is not zero, press the DC A/W ZERO button once to zero out the watt reading. · Insert the black test lead into the COM terminal and the red test lead into the + terminal. · Pressing the READ NEXT button clears the stored data from memory and readies the power clamp for another three phase 3-wire calculation. [. . . ] RST is shown on the LCD display to indicate that this is a measurement of the total system. · Pressing the 3 KVAR KVA button toggles to display the apparent power (kVA) of the system, which is shown on the main display, and the reactive power (kVAR), which is shown on the upper display. · Pressing the READ NEXT button clears the stored data from memory and readies the power clamp for another three phase 3-wire calculation. Note: The "+" sign on the jaw must face the power source for correct measurement. [. . . ]
