Abstract

A synchronous vector measuring device can measure an absolute phase angle of a synchronous vector excellent in continuous numerical stability at high speed and with high accuracy in a noisy electric power system. A voltage measuring part measures the voltage of the electric power system at a period equal to 1/4N (N being a positive integer) of one period of a reference wave. A voltage root-mean-square value calculation part calculates, at each voltage measuring timing, a voltage root-mean-square value at a specific timing from the voltages measured at past 4N timings including the specific timing. An absolute phase angle calculation part makes, at each voltage measuring timing, an inverse cosine of a value obtained by dividing the voltage measured at the specific timing by the product of the voltage root-mean-square value and the square root of 2, as the absolute phase angle of the synchronous vector at the specific timing.
