Abstract :
VOLT-AMPERE demand measurement has been a subject of discussion and interest for many years, and many different schemes have been proposed for measuring it, or approximations to it. This article discusses the technical principles and performance of a thermal volt-ampere demand meter and does not consider the problems of rate structures and their relation to units of demand measurement.
