tv For determination of the arithmetic mean value of the voltage the 3
phases are measured against N.
The variants without N ( /001 and /003) measure L1 and L2 against L3.

Diagram switching delay

Switching delay tM:

When the voltage changes fast on the measuring input, the arithmetic mean
value can only adjust after a short delay.

Example:
U applied 240 V
F = F= = 1.26
U setting 190 V

U setting = 190 V
U applied = 240 V

according to diagram:
tMon = approx. 800 ms
tMoff = approx. 100 ms
