What is Electrical Power & Energy Monitoring?
Load monitoring can be carried out for various reasons, such as looking at capacity of the installation for expansion, the current load draw, Load Balancing & assessing the power factor correction of the installation.
Typically this service is carried out in large commercial installations, where by the electrical system is monitored using the latest monitoring equipment, to capture real time data of the installation.
This is carried out over a specified period of time to attain Max & Minimum values for the installation, a typical monitoring period is 7 days.
We provide a detailed report documentation which is possible to show all the following data of the installation.
Current AC: up to 10kA
Current DC: up to 5kA (Additional current clamp required to measure DC)
Voltage ratio / current ratio: up to 650 000V / 25 000A
Power Factor: from 10 W/var/VA to 10 GW/Gvar/GVA
Energy: up to 4EWh / 4 EVAh / 4 Evarh and total energy (4 quadrants)
Phase: cos φ, tan Φ, PF
Load Balancing Report
Harmonics: up to the 50th order
