The use of Switching elements in power systems causes the current or voltage to involve harmonic waves. Harmonics bring about registration errors of the equipment for measuring power. In case the induction watthour meter designed on sinusoidal source is used in the measurement of power with harmonics, the precise measurement of power has many problems because harmonics cause a decrease of power factor and vibration by the unstable driving force on the aluminum disc. In this paper, analysis and test results on the harmonic sensitivity of an induction watthour meter is reported when the input voltage and current with harmonics were supplied to single-phase watthour meter.
