3-Phase 3-Wire(3P3W) Connection In 3P3W connection, the voltage wiring method differs according to the number of the PTs(Potential Transformer) used in the wiring configuration. However, Accura 3550 measures voltage signals in the same way regardless of the wiring method. Fig 4.4 3P3W Connection with 2PTs and 3CTs The method of measuring voltage is as follows.

Chapter 4 Measurements Aggregation Accura 3550 performs gapless sampling and calculations of measured signals per cycle and continues to generate 0.2-second frame data by aggregating data measured over 12(60Hz) or 10(50Hz) cycles. Based on the data, it provides data aggregated over various intervals not less than 1 second (1 and 5 seconds, 1 and 5 minutes, 1 and 6 hours, and 1 day).
By selecting an aggregation interval, users can collect the data on the selected aggregation interval through the Modbus map. Because the aggregated data are stored in the circular buffer in Accura 3550 for a certain period of time, users can collect aggregated measurement values with greater flexibility.
