The Arbiter Systems®, Inc.
Model 928A Power System MultimeterTM has two identical measurement
channels, Channel A and Channel B. Each input channel has a voltage input and
a current input. Current inputs are intended for use with external CTs having
a nominal output of 0 to 1 Arms or 0 to 1 Vrms. For basic measurements
(voltage, current, frequency, and phase angle) any combination of inputs may
be used. For power and energy measurements (active power, apparent power,
reactive power, and power factor), one voltage and one current must be
selected.
