CONT

Phase angle transducers provide a signal which is linearly proportional to the phase angle between a voltage and a current in a power system. This type of transducer is often called a power factor transducer, which is technically incorrect as power factor is proportional to the cosine of the phase angle and as such is non linear.

OBS

phase angle transducer: term standardized by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).
