Table C– 5: Section III—Case B
Symptoms: 3-Wire Possible Causes
• Phase B current is higher than A and C (except in
System Type 31)
• kVA = about half of the expected magnitude
• kW and kVAR can be positive or negative, less than about
half of the expected magnitude
• PF can be any value, probably a low leading value
• One CT polarity is backwards

• kVA = about half of the expected magnitude
• kW and kVAR can be positive or negative, less than about

Table C– 7: Section III—Case D
Symptoms: 3-Wire Possible Causes
• kW = 0 or low, with magnitude less than kVAR
• kVAR = positive or negative with magnitude of close to what
is expected for kW
• kVA = expected magnitude
• PF = near 0 up to about 0.7 lead
• Either the two voltage leads are swapped OR the two current leads are
swapped AND one instrument transformer has backwards polarity
(look for high or phase B current = high)
• The power meter is metering a purely capacitive load (this is unusual); in
this case kW and kVAR will be positive and PF will be near 0 lead

Table C– 8: Section III—Case E
Symptoms: 3-Wire Possible Causes
• One phase current reads 0
• kVA = about 1/2 of the expected value
• kW, kVAR, and power factor can be positive or negative of
any value
• The CT on the phase that reads 0 is short-circuited
• Less than 2% current (based on CT ratio) flowing through the CT on the
phase that reads 0
