Measuring peak power for rating plate

I would like to measure the peak power drawn by various pieces of equipment individually so that the figure can be shown on each equipment's rating plate.


I'm considering using the peak demand function on a MID power meter but, using 0.5s/0.2s CTs instead for better accuracy.  Is this approach acceptable?

  • If you want to estimate the inrush for a halogen lamp, measure the resistance with  a meter when cold, and expect to see about 10% of the resistance when hot.
