3.11. Measuring the power on the load and energy consumed
The Advanced Power Controller is able to measure the in-
stantaneous active power value on the load and the energy
consumed since the first power-on or the last reset. The pa-
rameters present depend on the type of load (single-phase
or three-phase).
The update in the non-volatile memory takes place every
two hours and when the line voltage is disconnected.
The load impedance value of the individual module is also
available; if the load is three-phase, the impedance value is
the total value. For loads such as IR lamps, the impedance
value can vary greatly depending on the power transferred
to the load.
The following diagrams show the processing sequences to
arrive at the active power, energy consumed and imped-
ance values.
