Distortion Factor Calculation
(DF)
Two global values giving the relative quantity of harmonics are computed: the
THD in proportion to the fundamental and the DF in proportion to the RMS
value.
Multiplying the voltage harmonic factor with the current harmonics factor gives
the power harmonic factor. Differentiating voltage harmonic phase angle with
current harmonic phase angle gives power harmonic phase angle.

W[3] = W[0] + W[1] + W[2] - Total Active Power
VA[3] = VA[0] + VA[1] + VA[2] - Total Apparent Power
VAR[3] = VAR[0] +VAR[1] + VAR [2] - Total Reactive Power
