Power Factor of an electrodynamometer can be improved by connecting a large resistor in series with the current coil.
A wattmeter reads the true power of a load, regardless of its power factor.
Yes. The wattmeter's current coil will have to be connected into one of the line conductors, and its voltage coil between that same line conductor and the neutral point of the load. Connected this way, the wattmeter's voltage coil is measuring one of the three phase voltages (line-to-neutral voltage) while its current coil is measuring the corresponding phase current (for a 4-wire system, the phase current = line current). The power factor (cosine of the phase angle) is accounted for automatically within the wattmeter. So the wattmeter will measure the true power (in watts) of one phase. The total power, therefore, will be 3x the wattmeter reading -providing, of course, that the load is balanced (i.e. each phase is identical). WebRep currentVote noRating noWeight

A wattmeter is designed so that it measures the supply voltage and the in-phase component of the load current. The product of these two quantities is the true power of the load.
The 'one wattmeter method' can only be used for balanced, wye-connected, loads where the load's neutral point is accessible. The wattmeter's current coil is inserted into any line conductor, and the voltage coil is connected between the same line and the neutral point. The wattmeter reading indicates the power of one phase, so the total power is three times the wattmeter reading.To measure the total power of a balanced or unbalanced wye- or delta-connected load, it is only necessary to use twowattmeters -this is called the 'two wattmeter method'. In this case, the current coils of each wattmeter are inserted into any two line conductors, and the voltage coils are connected between the two line conductors and the third line conductor. The sum of the two wattmeter readings will indicate the total power of the load.
There is no such thing as a 'low power-factor' wattmeter. A wattmeter always reads true power, regardless of the load's power factor.
A wattmeter reads the true power of a load, regardless of its power factor.
UPF in a wattmeter stands for "Unity Power Factor." It refers to power factor optimization in electrical systems where the current and voltage are in-phase. This signifies efficient utilization of power without wastage in the form of reactive power.
The electrodynamometer was invented by Werner von Siemens in 1867. It is a type of instrument used to measure electrical power.
yes.
If you are asking whether power-factor improvement has any effect on a wattmeter reading, then the answer is no, it doesn't. Improving the power factor of a load has absolutely no effect on the power of the load, but it can act to reduce the value of the load current.
LPF wattmeter is used for measuring power in highly inductive circuits & UPF wattmeter is used for measure power in resistance circuit in which the power factor ranges from 0.5 to unity. Answer is given by :Er. M KUMAR YADAV
Active volts amperes are measured by 2 wattmeter methods. A wattmeter will measure active power and not reactive power. Electrical engineering is a promising career for anyone who likes to generate power.
Yes. The wattmeter's current coil will have to be connected into one of the line conductors, and its voltage coil between that same line conductor and the neutral point of the load.

Alright, honey, listen up. The UPF wattmeter is used in short-circuit tests to measure the power factor of the equipment under test. It helps in determining the efficiency and performance of the system during a short-circuit condition. So, in simple terms, it's like having a nosy neighbor peeking in to see if everything's running smoothly when things go haywire.

An energy meter measures power and time; a wattmeter measures an instantaneous value of power. Energy = Watt/seconds.
