I'm wondering if Levi and al checked the quality of the electrical power! On
the topic regarding electrical measurements the report says that the
measurements were done with a PCE-830. The PCE-830 monitored the 3 phases
only and computed the energy consumption with data collected on the 3
phases. The PCE-830 can be fooled if the setup isn't as expected. For
example, the ground might be not the ground but a hidden phase. That's why
they should have checked:
- The quality of the ground
- The quality of the 3 phases regarding the neutral or between
phases
- The quality of the neutral (if present and used)
- The quality of the 50 Hz of the power line
That check will remove every concern about electrical input. Maybe they did
the check but there is no mention about that in the report of Levi and al.
To whom may I address this concern at the Levi's team and how ?
