1 Safety precautions

This instrument fulfills the requirements of the applicable EU guidelines

and national regulations. We confirm this with the CE marking. The

relevant declaration of conformity can be obtained from GMC-I

Messtechnik GmbH.

The multi-function power meter MAVOWATT 4 is constructed and

tested in compliance with the safety rules of DIN VDE 0410 /IEC 414

and VDE 0411-1/EN 61010-1/IEC 61010-1.

When properly used, the safety of both the user and the meter is

assured. Their safety is not assured, however, if the meter is misused

or carelessly handled.

To maintain the technically safe and proper condition and to ensure

safe operation, it is absolutely necessary to carefully and completely

read these operating instructions before using the meter, and to follow

them in all respects.

Please note the following safety precautions:

• The meter must only be operated by persons who understand the

danger of shock hazards and know how to apply safety precau-

tions. Shock hazards exist wherever voltages of more than 50 V

can appear.

• When making measurements where shock hazards exist, do not

work alone. A second person must be present.

• The maximum permissible voltage between any of the connectors

and ground is 650 V.

• Take into account that unexpected voltages can appear on

devices under test, capacitors may be charged dangerously, for

instance.

• Verify that the test leads are in good condition, e.g. no cracked

insulation, no open circuits etc.

• This meter must not be used for measurements on circuits with

corona discharge (high voltage).

• Measurements under moist environmental conditions are not per-

mitted.

• Absolutely verify that overloading of the nominal voltage and nom-

inal current ranges does not exceed the permissible limits. See

chapter 5 „Specifications“ for limits.

Repair, replacement of parts and calibration

When opening the meter, live parts may be exposed. Therefore, the

meter must be disconnected from all voltage sources prior to opening

its case for repair, replacement of parts or calibration. If repair or cali-

bration can then not be avoided unless the meter is open and live, this

work must only be performed by a qualified person who understands

the danger involved.

Faults and extraordinary stress

When it must be assumed that safe operation is no longer possible,

take the meter out of service and secure it against accidental use. It

must be assumed that safe operation is no longer possible,

• when the meter shows obvious signs of damage,

• when the meter no longer functions correctly,

• after prolonged storage under adverse conditions.

2 Application

The electronic multi-function power meter MAVOWATT 4 permits

direct power measurements on DC systems as well as active power

measurements on single-phase AC systems and on three-wire, three-

phase systems of balanced load.

In addition, the MAVOWATT 4 power meter can be used to directly

measure current and voltage on DC and single-phase AC systems.

Under consideration of correction factors, it is also possible to use the

meter for reactive power measurements on three-phase systems of

balanced load and also for interlinked voltages.

The MAVOWATT 4 power meter is particularly suited for industrial

measurements, for service and mounting. Also in the laboratory and in

the test room, diversified measuring tasks can be solved quickly and

without problems.

3 Getting started

3.1 Description of the operating controls

There are five connection terminals (1, figure 1), arranged on the front

of the power meter, two for current connection with the markings I* (1)

and I (3) and three for voltage connection with the markings L1 (2), L2

(5) and L3 (8). They are contact-protected.

The operating panel of the power meter consists of:

One selector switch for the voltage ranges (4, figure 1), with the four

ranges 50 V, 100 V, 250 V and 500 V.

One selector switch for the current ranges (5, figure 1), which can be

switched in four ranges 0.25 A, 1 A, 5 A and 25 A. One function switch

(6, figure 1) featuring 12 positions.

3.2 Installing the batteries

Caution: Make an all-pole disconnection of the meter from the

measuring circuits before you open the battery

compartment on the bottom!

➭Undo the slotted screw of the battery compartment cover using an

adequate tool or a coin, and remove the cover.

➭Install two 9-V flat cell batteries 6F22, 6LF22 or 6LR61 according to

IEC 86-2 in the two compartments.

Caution: Except for the specified 9-V flat cell batteries, no other voltage

souces must be connected to the battery connection contacts.

The connection contacts must not be connected with each other!

➭Replace the cover and screw-tighten it.

3.3 Mechanical zero check

➭Check that the meter is switched off.

➭Place the meter in a horizontal position.

➭Check the mechanical zero position of the pointer.

➭If required, correct the zero position with the adjuster " " on

the front panel.

8 GMC-I Messtechnik GmbH

3.4 Battery test

➭To test the battery for the voltage path and the battery for the cur-

rent path, set the function switch to the positions " 1" and "

2", one after another. When, at a time, the pointer is within the bat-

tery section marked " " on the scale, the battery voltages are

within the permissible range.

It is assured that the error limits according to the data given in

chapter 5 „Specifications“ are maintained.

4 Measurement

4.1 Notes on measurements

➭Prior to connecting the meter, check according to which of the cir-

cuitries shown in the following section the MAVOWATT 4 is to be

connected.

➭Find out whether direct connection of current path and voltage

path is possible on the basis of the system on which the measure-

ments are to be made and with respect to the power to be mea-

sured.

Caution: In systems having a voltage of more than 600 V,

measurements must, on principle, only be made via

current and voltage transformers!

The nominal currents and nominal voltages of the meters correspond

to those of commercial current transformers with secondary currents

of 1 A and 5 A, and the standardized voltage transformers with sec-

ondary voltages of 100 V or 110 V.

➭When using current transformers, consider the secondary load.

Particularly with longer connection leads and with a transformer

having a secondary current of 5 A, the power loss on the lines is

often remarkable.

➭Set up the current path mechanically solid and secure it against

accidental opening. Lay out the cross sections of the leads and the

connection points in such a way that they will not heat-up unper-

missibly. For currents above 5 A, the connections must always be

made as screw connections (e.g. with cable lugs), but not as plug

connections.

GMC-I Messtechnik GmbH 9

➭Prior to measuring, always set the selector switch for the current

ranges and that for the voltage ranges to the highest range. Make

sure that the set nominal values are never exceeded by more than

1.2 times.

➭For power measurements on DC and single-phase AC systems,

set the function switch to the " " position, for power measure-

ments on three-wire, three-phase systems of balanced load to the

" " position.

➭To measure the power factor (cos ), set the function switch to

"cos ind" with inductive load, with capacitive load to "cos cap".

The connection circuitries for active power and power factor mea-

surements (cos ) are identical and are shown later.

➭Switch the meter off after the measurement to avoid unnecessary

load on the batteries (function switch set to position " ").

The symbols used in the equations of the connection circuitries have

the following meaning:

P = Active power in W

Q = Reactive power in var

I = Load current of a phase in A

U = Interlinked generator voltage with three-phase connection in V

cos = Power factor

a = Readout of the pointer deflection on the corresponding

instrument scale in W, V or A

a= Readout of the pointer deflection on the cos scale

c ,c = Scale factor for power measurement

cI,cU= Scale constant for current and voltage measurement

üI,üU= Scale constant for current and voltage measurement

10 GMC-I Messtechnik GmbH

4.2 Connection circuitries

Current and voltage input takes place on the meter via connectors

which are suited for both plugging (banana plugs) and as terminals

(e.g. cable lugs). The current path is run to the two connectors I* (1)

and I (3), the voltage path to connectors L1 (2), L2 (5) and L3 (8).

For DC current and for single-phase AC systems, the voltage must be

applied to L1 (2) and L2 (5), for three-wire, three-phase systems (with-

out neutral conductor) to L1 (2), L2 (5) and L3 (8).

Following is a presentation of the wiring diagrams. The most important

diagrams are also affixed to the rear of the meter.
