7. Compute the maximum current and shunt voltage values (before overflow), as shown by Equation 15 and
Equation 16. Note that both Equation 15 and Equation 16 involve an If - then condition.
(15)
If Max_Current ≥ Max Possible_I then
Max_Current_Before_Overflow = MaxPossible_I
Else
Max_Current_Before_Overflow = Max_Current
End If
(Note that Max_Current is less than MaxPossible_I in this example.)
Max_Current_Before_Overflow = 0.06226 (Note: This result is displayed by software as seen in Figure 22.)
(16)
If Max_ShuntVoltage ≥ V
SHUNT_MAX
Max_ShuntVoltage_Before_Overflow = V
SHUNT_MAX
Else
Max_ShuntVoltage_Before_Overflow= Max_ShuntVoltage
End If
(Note that Max_ShuntVoltage is less than V
SHUNT_MAX
in this example.)
Max_ShuntVoltage_Before_Overflow = 0.3113 (Note: This result is displayed by software as seen in
Figure 22.)
8. Compute the maximum power with equation 8.

9. (Optional second calibration step.) Compute the corrected full-scale calibration value based on measured
current.
