2.4 Energy metering 

Detailed energy metering function is as follows,

 

- Total bi-directional energy 

- Bi-directional energy of each circuit 

Min. resolution is 0.01kWh. Energy display range is 99999999000 kWh (99.9 billion kWh). User can clear energy data 

by manual according to practical requirements after inputting correct password. 

 

2.5 Max./min. value and demand 

Meter can record max./min. value of voltage, current and power, and save these data of present month, last month 

and the month before last month. Please refer to communication list for detailed recording parameters. 

Meter can measure the demand of current and power in each circuit. Max./min. value and demand only can be read 

through communication, but not can be shown on the panel of meter. 

 

2.6 Digital input 

This meter supports 4 digital inputs. The digital input uses the method of dry contact input. DC 15V operation power 

supply is provided inside the meter without the need for external power supply. It can be used to monitor closing/opening 

status,  handcart  position,  operation  status  of  capacitance  compensation  cabinet,  etc.  The  status  information  can  be 

transmitted  remotely  to  monitoring  system  through  communication  interface  so  as  to  realize  automatic  opening  and 

closing with the remote/alarm relay function. 

 

2.7 Relay output 

The meter supports two relay outputs. 

The relay output has four different work modes: off, remote control and off-limit alarm.   

Off: relay output function is off, and the status relay returns to defaulted status. 

Remote control: to receive PC and PLC command, and to control the closing and opening of relay. 

Off-

limit alarm: set corresponding  relay  as  “Off-limit alarm”  mode, set alarm  electrical  variable  in  “Mode”  item, set 

alarm  de

lay  time  in  “Delay”  item,  set  alarm  limit  percentage  of  electrical  variable  in  “Value”  item,  set  hysteresis  value 

percentage in “Recover” item.
