Voltage and Current Unbalance
(three-phase connection - over one second)
These are calculated from the filtered RMS vector values (over one second)
VFrms[i] and Afrms[i] (ideally the fundamental vectors of the signals).

Harmonic Calculations
(excluding neutral – over 4 consecutive periods every second)
Harmonic bins are calculated by FFT with 16 bit resolution (1024 samples on 4
cycles) without windowing (IEC 1000-4-7). From the real parts bk and the imagi-
nary parts ak, the harmonic factor is calculated for each order (j) and for each
phase (i) (Vharm[i][j], Uharm[i][j], and Aharm[i][j]) with respect to the fundamental
and the angles Vph[i][j], Uph[i][j], and Aph[i][j] with respect to the fundamental.
This calculation is accomplished using the following principle:
