3.1.37 Per-Phase Reactive Power Offset Register

This value indicates the per-phase reactive power offset, POWER_OFFSET_Q_x: where x = [A, B, C]. The units of POWER_OFFSET_Q_x is [VAR samp-scaled].

For a fixed voltage, this offset may be computed by applying voltage phase(s), setting zero current(s) and reading the phase’s reactive power accumulator, Q_x. Averaging over many readings or a longer integration period may provide a more statistically accurate estimate.

Where N = number of samples in integration period.

Alternatively, if the offset to be compensated is in units of VAr, the value to be written in the register can be computed as:

POWER_OFFSET_Q_x = Offset (VAr) * 240 / (K_Ix * K_Vx)

Example to compensate a 5 VAr offset given K_IA = 617,284179 and K_VA = 1651:

POWER_OFFSET_Q_A = round(5 * 240 / (617,284179 * 1651)) = 5394331 = 0x00524F9B
