AC System Monitoring Device

Schedule Updates

November 4, 2015

Update Highlights

  • Monitoring AC Voltage 90% - Adding voltage control with application of a Variac to test various input voltages; Successfully connected high voltage probe for oscilloscope to the load to measure voltage; Will finialize AC voltage monitoring and start testing in the next week
  • Monitoring AC Current 75% - RL load circuit built for the device current monitoring; Discovered that using transformer for inductive load is not ideal; Using power reactor inductor to make more linear load; AC current monitoring should be finalized soon and should be able to start testing to continue to power factor calculation build
  • User interface Control 10% - Learning and implimenting controls for the user interfacing with the device
  • Progress Presentation 0% - Planning on working on progress presentation in the next week to prepare for presenting in 2 weeks
