Abstract

A shift register is utilized to provide a 90.degree. delay in a pulse width modulated current signal to determine volt-amperes reactive. The shift register is associated with a clock that provides a preselected frequency that, in combination with the number of stages in the shift register, delays the pulse width modulated current signal by an amount equivalent to one-quarter period of the current waveform in the metered circuit. After delaying the pulse width modulated signal by 90.degree., the shifted signal is multiplied by a voltage signal that represents the voltage in the metered circuit and the resulting product signal is input to a voltage-to-frequency converter.
