Measurement of main circuit voltages, currents and powers
Measurement of voltages and currents
Since the voltages and currents on the inverter power supply and output sides include harmonics,
measurement data depends on the instruments used and circuits measured.
When instruments for commercial frequency are used for measurement, measure the following circuits
with the instruments given on the next page.

Note: Use an FFT to measure the output voltage accurately. A tester or general measuring instrument
cannot measure accurately.
