Meter Setup
The
Meter Setup
screen allows unique changes to an element on the Power Patrol. Within the element,
CT Phase, Type, Amps,
and
Phase Shift
are entered, based on wiring connection, for CT1, CT2, and CT3.
The type of wiring connection and the
Digital Output
are also entered for the element. Overall, a
Demand Window
of 1–60 minutes is available for the recording of values and a
Line Frequency
of 50-,
60- is selectable.
NOTE:
In Power Patrol meters, Peak Demand is calculated using a moving window and is averaged
across the selected demand window size. Each minute the total consumption is recalculated and
compared to the last demand window. If the new window is larger than the last recorded value it is
recorded. This value is calculated during the sampling of the waveform.
The Meter Setup screen is blank when first accessed. Click
Retrieve Meter Setup
to view the current
status of the element(s).
