Power Measurement

According to Blondel's theorem, the total power is measured with one less number of wattmeters than the number of wires present in the system. So, a single-phase and two-wire system will require one wattmeter and a single-phase and the three-wire system will require two wattmeters, and a three-phase and the three-wire system will also require two wattmeters and a three-phase and the four-wire system will require three wattmeter devices. The wattmeter is a device that measures power using one voltage and one current input as shown in the above figure. Multiple current or voltage input pair cables are used by many power analyzers and digital storage oscilloscopes (DSOs) for measuring watts, in effect within a single instrument acting as multiple wattmeters. It is possible to measure three-phase and four-wire power with one correctly specified power analyzer.

In the figure below you see the sketches for the front and back of an electrical circuit board. The board is cut into a trapezoidal shape and is made of plastic. On the back of the board there is conductive paint shown here in green. On the front there are some resistors and capacitors, in addition to terminals for inserting the leads from a DC power supply. The legs of the resistors and capacitors go through the holes on the board and are soldered to the conducting paint on the back side. You also have a multi-meter which you can use as an ammeter or a voltmeter. 16 v 4700 16 10 8 O- 7 3. 6. 4 O+
