Inrush Current Measurement Method
Figure 1 Small motor
Inrush current
A function to measure inrush current is available.
This function allows you to easily measure inrush current
that occurs when starting a motor, relay, or the like.
Just clamp the CW10 to the motor and set INRUSH
before starting the motor to automatically measure
and hold the inrush current that occured in 100 ms
period (Figure 2).
Figure 2
What is inrush current?
Inrush AC current
Displays RMS value of 100ms period.
Starting current or inrush current is the
instantaneous electrical current that flows when
the power is initially turned on.
