IEC61000-4-30 published by International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is an international standard that specify how power quality instruments should make measurements. Also it defines the exact measurement algorithms methods for power quality parameters such as power quality voltage, flicker, unbalance, harmonic, etc.
Currently the latest version of the standard is IEC61000-4-30, Edition 3 which was published in 2015.
There are two classes defined in this standard-Class A and Class S, Suin SA2100 power quality analyzer is classified to Class S instrument, of which accuracy and performance requirements are not as strict as Class A.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is used to measure waveform distortion. Method THDF - total harmonic distortion referred to fundamental component was used on SA2200 and result will be expressed as a percentage.
Class A Power Quality Analysers that must meet Class A performance requirements of IEC61000-4-30 international standard, when instruments are connected to the same signals will produce the same results. Class A instruments must meet the highest performance and accuracy requirements in this standard.
Class A defines the measurement time accuracy (better than +/- 0.3 sec/day) for parameters such as voltage, current and harmonics. With defined methods and measurement uncertainties for Power Supply Voltage, Flicker, Voltage Unbalance, Voltage and Current Harmonic.
Suin SA2200 power quality analyzer complies with the IEC61000-4-30 Ed. 3 Class A standard. So far, the certified by IEC62856-2 is being prepared and will made public once get this certification.
The operating time can up to 6 hours when the screen brightness is in level 3. The battery charge time is about 6 hours.
