When Displaying the Harmonic Content of Each Order on the WT Series Power Analyzer, What Value is Used for the Denominator?
- For Precision Power Analyzer WT1000, WT2000, WT100, and WT200, it is fixed to the fundamental wave. For power analyzers with 7 segments LED, the relative harmonic content is fixed to the fundamental wave.
Relative harmonic content=（each harmonics x 100)/Fundamental Wave[%] - For WT1600, WT3000, and WT500, it is selectable.
1. When the denominator of the computing equation for distortion is a total value (Total),
Relative harmonic content = (each harmonics x 100)/Total Waves[%]
2. When the denominator of the computing equation for distortion is the fundamental wave (Fundamental),
Relative harmonic content = (each harmonics x 100)/Fundamental Wave[%]
