13.1: Measurements and Calculations
The Nexus® 1262/1272 meter measures many different power parameters. The following is a list
of the formulas used to conduct calculations with samples for Wye and Delta services.
Samples for Wye: v an , v bn , v cn , i a , i b , i c , i n
Samples for Delta: v ab , v bc , v ca , i a , i b , i c
Root Mean Square (RMS) of Phase to Neutral Voltages: n = number of samples.
For Wye: x = an, bn, cn
