Glossary American Wire Gauge American Wire Gauge is a number assigned to a specific conductor or wire cross-section. Balance The SENTRON PAC3100 calculates the energy balance for active energy and reactive energy. Balance equals import minus export. Baud rate The baud rate is the rate of data transmission. It indicates the number of bits transferred in one second.
