Introduction

Introduction
Thank you for choosing the CewePrometer.

The CewePrometer is a multi-functional, electronic, electricity energy meter. It provides very high
accuracy in measuring electrical energy and also in measuring instantaneous quantities such as
current, voltage, power, frequency etc. CewePrometers extensive configurable functional features
together with the high accuracy enable application areas more numerous than for traditional electric
meters. Besides having well-designed traditional features such as meter registers, data logging and
tariff capability, there are also extensive functions for monitoring alarm conditions, harmonics,
measuring sags and swells and other power quality quantities.

About this user manual


This user manual describes the CewePrometers functions and provides the information needed to
configure and use the meter. The manual covers all versions of the CewePrometer-R (rack-
mounted) and CewePrometer-W (wall-mounted). Some of the described functional properties can
be missing in certain meter versions. The CewePrometer is complemented with CeweConfig, a PC
program for configuring, manual reading and maintenance.

Connector for CewePrometer-R


A standardised Entrelec Essailec plug-in connector is used, of the same type as for other meters
according to standard DIN 43862. The cable connection is made in the subrack. The meter is
connected via the contact pins after insertion. The connector has a short-circuit protection feature
for electrical circuits, permitting the meter to be withdrawn and inserted into the subrack during
operation.

Auxiliary power
The CewePrometer is supplied with separate auxiliary power. Auxiliary power can be supplied both
with alternating current and polarity-independent direct current within a specified range. Auxiliary
power can be self powered (internal), CewePrometer-R can also be configured with dual auxiliary.

Digital outputs
The CewePrometer's outputs are solid-state MOS-FET bipolar semiconductor relays, with normally
open contact function. Internal current limit protects the relay from being damaged by excessively
high current.

11
Product description

Digital inputs
The optically isolated digital inputs consist of opto couplers, where the LED is powered from an
external voltage signal through series resistance to limit the current. This means that an external
voltage must be connected between the passive pulse and level transmitter and the opto coupler's
LED, or the transmitter must deliver an active voltage signal to send pulses that are detected by the
optical input. The optically isolated inputs are unaffected by reverse polarity. Both DC and 50/60
Hz AC can be used.

Communication ports {Ethernet (IP), Serial (RS232, RS422,RS485)}


The CewePrometer is equipped with one optical port and up to two additional communication ports,
Ethernet or serial (RS232 or RS422. RS422 can also be used as RS485)

Communications through the infrared IEC62056-21/IEC1107 optical port are transferred


via an optical read/write adapter, an optical head. The optical head is positioned and
secured over the optical port by a magnet on the head and a steel plate around the opening
of the optical port.
The RS232 standard communication port is used to connect communication equipment
(computers, modems) through a serial cable with a standard D-sub, 9-pin connector.
The RS422 serial communication port is intended to be used to connect the CewePrometer
to a network for multi-drop communications. The CewePrometer is connected to the
communication equipment (RS422 converter) with two twisted-pair wires connected to a
5-pole connector. The RS422 port can also be used for single twisted-pair RS485 bus.
The Ethernet communication port is used to connect to the meter over TCP/IP based
network.
For information on pin configuration, see Appendix C Communication Ports (pg. 73).

enclosure consists of a box made of surface-finished steel sheet and a front with a plastic window.
The meter is designed for protective earthing through the 19" subrack.

Isolation and personal safety


The electronic circuits are isolated from all connections to the supply mains with transformers.
Digital I/O connections are isolated with opto couplers and solid state relays. The communication
ports are also isolated but for a lower voltage.

15
Product description

Function modules
Modulisation
The CewePrometer is made up of function modules. Modulisation is primarily used to make it easy
to produce different versions with the same basic design, and to enable development of new
modules for the basic design to add or replace functions. Modulisation is not primarily intended for
being able to switch plug-in modules in the field the meter must be opened and the seals broken to
switch modules.

Modules
The CewePrometer consists of the following basic modules, which are necessary for a functioning
meter in its simplest version:
Measurement module
Power module
Display and register module
Moreover, the meter is normally equipped with the following modules for additional functionality:
Digital I/O module
Communication module
There is also space for additional function modules for expansion of function properties to meet
future market needs.

For more information, see Appendix D - Module block diagram (pg. 78).

16
Product description

Measuring principles
The measuring circuit in CewePrometer consists of current and voltage transformers that provide
signals to six parallel AD converters (analogue to digital converters) that are synchronised by a
common clock signal. The digital signals are thereafter processed by a DSP. Using voltage
transformers makes the electronics in the meter galvanically isolated from the measurement voltage,
which provides good personal safety and protection for connected equipment, such as modems.

Calculation flow
All values are calculated in the CewePrometer based on calibrated current and voltage values.
Current and voltage amplitudes and phase angles are fully compensated in regards to accuracy,
harmonics, frequency and temperature. Adjustments for accuracy are made throughout the dynamic
range for both voltage and current. Based on these individually compensated current and voltage
signals, power, energy, power factor and all other quantities that the CewePrometer can present, are
subsequently calculated. This means that accuracy for instant values is good and that active and
reactive power are correctly calculated, including harmonic power. For more information on
calculation principles and the formulas used, see Appendix F Calculation Principles (pg. 81).

3-element meter
On the 3-element CewePrometer, phase voltages and neutral wires are connected to the meter. The
voltages measured are phase voltages. Power and energy are calculated from three phase voltages
and three currents. Harmonic measurement, alarm monitoring and transformer corrections are made
on phase voltages. The phase to phase voltage is calculated from the phase voltages.

2-element meter
On the 2-element CewePrometer, the neutral conductor is not connected to the meter and the three
voltages are internally D-connected. The voltages measured are subsequently phase to phase
voltages. Power and energy are calculated based on two phase to phase voltages (U12 and U23) and
two currents (I1 and I3) according to the 2-watt meter method. The 2-element meter is primarily
used for D-connected systems (3-wire). Harmonic measurement, alarm monitoring and transformer
corrections are made on phase to phase voltages.

Connecting to CewePrometer
To be able to configure or read values in the CewePrometer, CeweConfig must be connected and
have authorisation to access the meter. The meter has five different authorisation levels that can be
configured with passwords. See the section
Communications and security (pg. 40). With the meter's usual factory settings, no password is
configured, and subsequently no password is necessary when you connect.

To communicate with a meter, the PC must be physically connected to the CewePrometer in one of
the following ways:

PC Optical head Meter


PC Crossed serial cable (null modem) Meter
PC Straight serial cable RS422 converter Daisy chained meters
PC straight serial cable RS485 converter Daisy chained Meters
PC Modem Modem Meter
PC Ethernet (straight) Meter

How to connect to the meter

1. Connect to Meter
Choose Connect to Meter from the File menu or by clicking the toolbar button.

2. Communication channel
Click the Settings tab and choose either, Optical Port, Serial Port (RS232/RS422), Serial Port
(RS485) or Modem. If the serial port or a modem is used, the baud rate must be selected. For
meters with factory settings, the baud rate is 9600. When the optical port is used, CeweConfig
adapts itself to the baud rate the meter is configured for, making selection of the baud rate
unnecessary.

Note: The selectable communication ports can be changed by changing the XML file Settings.xml
that is in CeweConfig's installation directory.
19
Configuration, reading and maintenance

3. Serial Port (RS485)


If a connection over RS485 uses a RS485 converter relying on the RTS signal for switching
between transmit and receive, an RTS off delay may have to be defined. The time is given in
milliseconds, and defines for how long the converted data is kept in transmit mode after last
character has been sent on the communication port. Time may vary depending on PC performance
and baud rate. Typical time is 20ms for 9600 baud.

4. Modem
If a modem connection is used, a modem must be chosen. The modems available are those installed
in Windows. Click the Common tab and enter the telephone number to be called.

5. Password
Click the Common tab. A password is entered if one is configured in the meter. With the meter's
factory settings, no password is configured, and subsequently no password is necessary when you
connect.

6. Serial number
Serial number is only required if a special meter is to be addressed when several meters are
connected together with RS422.

7. Trace to file
Under the Settings tab, a box can be checked to activate tracing to a file. A file named
SerialTrace.log is then created in CeweConfig's installation directory. All communications between
CeweConfig and the meter are presented in the file. The function can be used to analyse
communication problems.

8. Click the Connect button.

Note: For Ethernet communication, the Serial Port (RS232/RS422) option should be selected.

Problems with connecting


If the meter cannot be connected, an error message is displayed. Depending on the reason, the
message can suggest corrective actions, such as changing the port or port baud rate.

Tip: When communication problems occur, the trace feature on the meter's display can be used to
see if that which has been sent has been registered by the meter. See the section Using the display
for communication diagnostics (pg. 60).

Basic configuration
Some basic settings may be required before the CewePrometer will be able to measure and operate
correctly in a system.

Note: Settings are only necessary if they have not been made at the factory prior to delivery.

Meters supplied without backup batteries retain the time setting for a maximum of three days. For
time-dependent functions such as logging and event logging to work, the clock may need to be
adjusted.

20
Configuration, reading and maintenance

To change the configuration for a meter, you must be connected to it. Click the Configuration
folder in the structure tree to the left in CeweConfig to display the various functions that can be
configured. For more information see the section Changing configuration (pg. 25).

Tip: You can save a configuration from a meter to a file. A summary of the configuration can also
be printed out. You can also create a configuration without being connected to a meter. For more
information, see Working with configurations (pg. 26).

Meter clock: To configure the meter clock, choose the node Meter Configuration -
Clock in the structure tree. Find out how the meter clock works and how it can be
configured in the section Meter clock (pg. 30).

Transformer ratios: For the meter to measure accurately, the ratios must be correct. To
configure the transformer ratio in CeweConfig, choose the node Meter Configuration
Measuring in the structure tree. Click the General tab in the window that opens. Fill in
the primary and secondary values for current and voltage.

Note 1: The values you choose as primary and secondary values will be considered as the
nominal values. These nominal values are used by several functions in the meter: alarms,
voltage monitoring and transformer compensation.
Any changes to measuring configuration is logged in the configuration log (see section
Configuration log).
Note 2: (1(2) and 5(10)A configurable meters). The measuring range of the meter is
based on the nominal current and the max current. If the meter has a configurable
nominal current, it is set by the CT secondary value. If it is configured as 1 A when
connected to 5 A, the maximum of 2 A is violated with saturated current measurements as
result. If it is configured as 5 A when connected to 1 A, the accuracy at low currents (<50

21
Configuration, reading and maintenance

mA) will not be good enough. If configured and connected to anything else than 1 or 5 the
accuracy is not guaranteed.
Presentation format for energy registers: To configure the presentation format for
energy registers, choose the node Meter Configuration Measuring in the structure
tree. Choose the prefix and number of decimals for energy registers. Based on the nominal
values, a capacity is calculated for how long the meter can measure without registers
resetting. Read about energy registers in the section Energy registers (pg. 32).
Pulse constants for pulse outputs (Digital I/O): To configure pulse constants for pulse
outputs in CeweConfig, choose the node Meter Configuration Digital I/O in the
structure tree. Find out how Digital I/O works and how it can be configured in the section
Digital inputs and outputs (pg. 35).
Display sequences: To configure display sequences in CeweConfig, choose the node
Meter Configuration Display sequences in the structure tree. Find out how display
sequences work and how they can be configured in the section Display sequences (pg. 38).

Working with configurations


In CeweConfig, you can work with configurations as a collection of CewePrometer's settings and
save them in a file. On CeweConfig's File menu, are the commands Save configuration, Open
configuration and New configuration. A configuration can either be for a 2- or 3-element meter.
You cannot transfer a 2-element configuration to a 3-element meter or vice versa. Transformer
corrections or passwords are not saved in configuration files. On the File menu, there is a command
for creating a configuration summary. Below is a list of how you can use CeweConfig's functions to
work with configurations.

Creating a configuration file without being connected to a meter


Choose New configuration when CeweConfig is not connected to create a configuration
file offline. The configuration file can be either of the 2- or 3-element type. Make all settings
that are to be included in the configuration file and save the file. The file's configuration can
later be transferred to a meter.
Saving a meter's configuration to a file
Choose Save configuration when CeweConfig is connected to a meter to save the meter's
configuration to a file. The configuration file can later be used as a backup or be transferred
to another meter.

The latest version of CeweConfig can be used with all firmware versions of CewePrometer-R/W.
The version number for CeweConfig is displayed on the application's title bar or under About on
the Help menu. The version number for the meter's firmware can be viewed under View
information about the meter on the View menu.

CewePrometer and CeweConfig have three-digit version numbers according to the format main
version.sub-version.build number. As long as the main version and sub-version are the same,
CeweConfig and the meter are compatible. If the meter is of a newer version than CeweConfig and
the main version and/or sub-version are different, CeweConfig will display a message that
connection is not possible. CeweConfig must be updated.

Updating firmware
CewePrometer is designed with a number of modules that each have their own processors and their
own firmware. The module firmware is distributed in a package file (.pkg) which is transferred to
the meter using CeweConfig. Newly developed and improved functions can thus be added in a
meter that lacked these functions when delivered.

Note: Be sure to update CeweConfig to the latest version before updating the meter. There is
otherwise the risk that CeweConfig will no longer be version-compliant after firmware updating.

On the Tools menu, there is an Update firmware command when the meter is connected with
authorisation level 4 or higher. Begin by choosing the file that contains the update. The file name
and version number will then be displayed, and sometimes a message. Click the Advanced button
to view CeweConfig's version number by module for both the file and the meter. Additionally, you
can force modules to be updated even if the file has the same version number. Click Update to
begin updating.

29
Configuration, reading and maintenance

During the time the update is being installed, the meter stops measuring and registering energy.
Depending on the size of the file to be transferred and the baud rate, the time for updating can vary
from a few minutes to a half hour at the highest baud rate. If possible, connect at the highest baud
rate (19200 bps) to speed updating. After updating, the meter is restarted to complete installation of
the meter's new firmware.

Updating can be performed via a modem but this should be avoided since reliability for this method
of communication is too low. An interrupted update can leave a meter with incomplete firmware
that cannot measure at all. If an update via a modem has failed, the next update must be made via
RS232/422 or the optical head.

Restrictions
Firmware updates can only be made to a firmware version with the same major version number as
the firmware present in the meter. Example: It is not possible to update from 2.1.0 to 3.0.0. It is
possible to update from 2.0.1 to 2.1.0.

Language
CeweConfig can be set to different languages. The available languages can be seen under
Language on the View menu.

Resetting registers and logs


CewePrometer's various registers and log data can be reset with CeweConfig if a meter is connected
and you are connected with a sufficiently high authorisation level. You will find a number of
choices under Reset on the Tools menu. Some options may be marked in grey if your authorisation
level is not high enough. To reset energy registers, authorisation level 5 is required, and level 3 for
other options. A warning dialog box opens before resetting.

Functions
Meter clock
The CewePrometer has an integrated real-time clock for time-dependent functions. Information
about time adjustment and daylight saving time status is recorded with tags on the logged values;
see Loggers (pg.42). Time adjustments are also noted as an event in the event log; see Appendix B
Events (pg. 70).

Instantaneous adjustment
The meters date and time can be set to an absolute point in time. Instantaneous adjustment of the
meters time can influence logged values. To avoid this, the meter's log memory is reset when doing
instantaneous adjustment. For this reason, instantaneous adjustment of the meter clock is primarily
intended for use at initial configuration of the meter.

Sliding adjustment
The meters time can be adjusted successively. Instead of the meter adjusting the clock
instantaneously, the total adjustment is spread out over a longer period. A speed of adjustment can
30
Using the display
be chosen in the 140% range. With 40%-adjustment, the clock is adjusted 24 seconds for each
minute until the total adjustment has been made.

Daylight saving time


CewePrometer offers the alternative of letting the meter clock follow daylight savings time. At a
specified date, the meter clock is adjusted forward, and at another, adjusted backward.
CewePrometer can store ten (10) years of DST configuration.

Example: On 28 March the clock is to be adjusted forward, from 02:00 to 03:00. The adjustment
back to standard time is to occur on 31 October at 3:00 (daylight savings time) when the clock is to
be set back to 02:00. The following is set in the meters: Begin March, 28, 02:00. End October, 31,
03:00 and the standard time is to be adjusted by 60 minutes.

External synchronisation
The meter time can be adjusted by a pulse on one of the meters digital inputs. When a pulse is
registered, the clock is adjusted to the closest multiple of a specified synchronisation interval. If the
synchronisation interval is, for example, one hour and the time is 13:29, a pulse will adjust the clock
to 13:00. If the time had instead been 13:31, the clock would have been adjusted to 14:00.

Available synchronisation intervals are:


10, 15, 20 and 30 minutes
1 hour
Times 12:00 and 00:00
Time 00:00

Besides specifying that the meter clock will synchronise via external pulses, a digital input must
also be configured for clock synchronisation; see the section Digital inputs and outputs (pg. 35).

Battery monitoring
The battery is used to backup the real time clock. The battery monitoring function estimates the
time left of the battery. At installation of a battery the monitoring function must be restarted via
CeweConfig.

Using the display

Energy registers
Energy registers in the CewePrometer are electronic counters that accumulate energy. Prefixes and
number of decimals are configured which apply to all energy registers. Energy registers have a
width of nine digits, regardless of the total number of decimals and the prefix configured. When an
energy register has reached its maximum figure (for example, 999999.999 kWh), it resets to zero.
Fewer decimals and larger prefixes give the energy registers space for more energy without
resetting. Read more about how energy is calculated and defined by quadrants in Appendix F
Calculation Principles (pg. 81).

Overview
The table shows the energy registers available in the meter.

Energy type Energy direction Total values Per phase values Total number
Active energy Import, export Yes Yes (3-element 8
meter only)
Reactive energy Import, export, Yes No 8
quadrants I-IV,
capacitive, inductive
Apparent energy Import, export Yes No 2

Quadrants Phase angle Current relative to voltage


I 0 to 90 Lagging
II 90 to 180 Lagging
III -180 to -90 Leading
IV -180 to 0 Leading

Storage in non-volatile memory


All registers are saved in non-volatile memory once per second. Loss of auxiliary voltage therefore
results in no more than one second of lost historical energy measurement data. For optimal
safekeeping, all registers are saved in three alternating memory areas.

32
Using the display
Instant values
Besides energy, the CewePrometer can also measure instant values. Instant values are constantly
changing values such as current, voltage, power and harmonics. The formulas and definitions used
to calculate the values are presented in Appendix F Calculation Principles (pg. 81).

Overview
This table provides an overview of the instant values that can be read on the meter. Readings can be
viewed with CeweConfig, on the display and with other software that has implemented
CewePrometers communication protocol. Most instant values can be logged; for more information,
see section Loggers (pg. 42).

Update frequency
The update frequency for instant values is proportional to the frequency of the measuring voltage.
With a 50 Hz measuring voltage, updating occurs 12.5 times per second, and at 60 Hz, 15 times per
second. Instant values can be read up to twice per second via the serial port when it is set to 19200
baud.

Accuracy for 1(2) and 5(10) A configurable meter see Transformer Ratios Note2: (pg.22).

Prefix for units in the display


The presentation for units and the number of decimals depends on the magnitude of the value.

Harmonics measurement
Harmonics numbers 2 to 31 are measured for all currents and voltages. At a fundamental frequency
of 50 Hz, the second harmonic is 100 Hz, the third harmonic is 150 Hz, etc. Both the harmonics
amplitude and phase angle are measured and included in the calculation of power and energy, and
can be read via the meters communication protocols. In CeweConfig, harmonic amplitudes are
presented with a diagram.

THD
THD stands for Total Harmonics Distortion and is a measurement of the amount of harmonics
present in a signal. Voltages and currents THD can be read via CeweConfig and on the display.

Harmonics on 2-element meter


The harmonics measurements of voltage on the 2-element meters should be seen from the
standpoint of the voltages being D-connected internally in the meter. The harmonics measured are
the vector sums of the phases harmonics.

34
Using the display
Digital inputs and outputs
The CewePrometer has several inputs and outputs that can be configured to perform various tasks.
Both inputs and outputs are protected against overvoltages by varistors. They also have an isolated
interface between the electronics and the surroundings to ensure personal safety. For electrical data
on the meters inputs and outputs, see Appendix H Connection & General (pg. 87).

Inputs
The inputs can be configured as follows:
Not used
The input is not used.
Finish historical period
An incoming pulse will result in the present period ending and registers being copied to
historical registers. For a pulse to finish historical period, it is also necessary that the
historical registers be configured to allow this. For more information, see the section
Historical registers (pg. 50).
Pulse input
To register pulses from pulse-producing units, such as energy meters or water meters, pulse
inputs are used. Incoming pulses are accumulated in registers called external registers. There
is an external register connected to each input on the meter. For external registers, a factor is
configured by which the number of incoming pulses is multiplied. Prefixes and the number
of decimals can also be configured for the registers. Moreover, the registers can be
configured with descriptive texts.
Time synchronisation
When incoming pulses are received, the meters clock is synchronised at a specific interval
For available synchronisation intervals and more detailed information on time
synchronisation, see the section Meter clock (pg. 30).
Rate input
Up to three digital inputs can be configured to control the active rate. Each input will
correspond to a bit and the significance is also defined for the digital input. A high level on
the input will signify that the bit is 1 while a low level will signify 0. How the digital
input levels are mapped to rates is defined in the Time of use panel (pg. 51).

Registration of pulses
The meter registers pulses on positive or negative flanks, depending on if the input is set to inverted
or not. A pulse must be at least 16 ms long to be guaranteed of being detected by the meter. The
maximum pulse width that the meter can handle is 60 s. By setting limits for maximum and
minimum pulse lengths, the meter can be limited as to what it detects as a valid pulse. Pulses with
lengths beyond the established limits are ignored. The occurrence of to long or to short pulses can
also be configured to be recorded in the event log.

The figure shows pulse lengths when an input is inverted or non-inverted, respectively.

Outputs
The outputs can be configured as follows:
Not used
The output is not used.
Pulse output
The output is used to pulse an energy type that the meter is measuring. A pulse constant is
specified for the output as pulses/unit, primary or secondary, and the pulse length is
specified for all pulse outputs. The shortest possible pulse length is 40 ms. Pulses are not
allowed not come too often, and because of this, there is a relationship between the pulse
length and the specified pulse constant that maximises the pulse frequency to 1000/(pulse
length(ms) * 2).

Pulse Gap

Maximum pulse frequency at outputs limited so that the gap is at least as long as the pulse
length.
Remote control
With this function, the output can be made active or inactive by sending commands to the
meter via the IEC62056-21/IEC1107 protocol. This functions could be used control
anything that can be controlled with a digital relay output.
Alarm output
When an output is set to functions as an alarm output, one or more of the user-defined
alarms can be chosen to indicate at the output. When an alarm occurs, the output switches to
active, and when the alarm state ceases, the output returns to inactive. In the section Alarms
(pg. 45), user-defined alarms are described and how they can be configured.

In contrast to the other selectable functions for outputs, alarm outputs can be inverted. Note
that outputs are inverted via firmware. If the meter loses its auxiliary power, the relay will
open, regardless of it is inverted or not.

36
Using the display
End of MD period (maximum demand period)
At the end of a set MD period, the output will go active for one second before returning to
the inactive state. See the section Maximum demand (pg. 48).

Output states
An active output means a closed relay when the output is not inverted. When the output is inverted,
the active relay is open. The output can only be inverted when used as an alarm or pulse output The
CewePrometer outputs are of the solid-state type and when the meter is turned off, they are open.

Display sequences
The following is a description of the function properties of CewePrometers display
sequences. The section Fel! Ogiltig sjlvreferens i bokmrke. (pg. 30) describes how to
navigate in the display sequences via the meters buttons, and
Appendix A Display Layouts (pg. 62) lists all of the CewePrometers available display layouts.

Menu for choosing one of the four display sequences. The names of the sequences can be configured.

The CewePrometer is equipped with a graphic display that can show the information available in
the meter. To organise the information, there can be up to five display sequences with a maximum
of 40 selectable display layouts in each. Each display sequence can be given a name that will be
presented on the display.
Display sequence five is only accessible via the sealed button under the front panel window. The
front panel window can be sealed to provide additional security. For this reason, it is appropriate
that display layouts with sensitive information and sensitive functions be placed in display sequence
five.

Automatic display cycling


Automatic display cycling means that the display layouts in one or more display sequences are
automatically cycled by the meter. If, for example, display sequences 1 and 3 are configured for
automatic display layout cycling, the meter will first cycle the display layouts in sequence 1 from
the first to last layout, and then continue with sequence 3. After the last layout in sequence 3,
cycling restarts with the first layout in sequence 1. The display layouts cycle with a configurable
delay of 1 to 30 seconds. If a user manually navigates in the display sequences via the meter's
buttons, cycling automatically stops and continues again after one minute.

Passwords and security


The display sequences can be configured to be password protected to limit access for various users.
When a user chooses a password-protected display sequence via the meters buttons, a password
entry field is displayed. Only a correctly entered password gives access to the display sequence and
to the display layouts that are included in it. A password can be up to six characters long and
include the characters A-Z, 0-9 and :;<>=?@. Passwords are not case-sensitive.

Note: If a password-protected display sequence is configured for automatic display layout cycling,
password protection is deactivated.

Automatic return to first display layout


One minute after a user has stopped navigating in the display sequences, the CewePrometer returns
to the first display layout in display sequence 1 if automatic display layout cycling is not activated
for any display sequence.

38
Functions

Locked (required) display sequence


The meter can be configured to not allow any changes of display sequence 4. This setting (Block
configuration of display sequence 4) is available in the Communication and Security form. The
setting can only be changed at access level 5.
Since access level 5 typically requires the security hardware jumper, this feature can be used to
enforce a display sequence that cannot be changed or deactivated using CeweConfig.

39
Functions

Communications and security


All CewePrometers are equipped with an optical port for communication. The meter can be
optionally equipped with one or two (three on the rack meter) additional communication ports with
RS232, RS422 (RS485) or Ethernet interfaces. CewePrometer supports the IEC62056-21 (formerly
IEC 1107) and on the additional ports also the DLMS/COSEM protocol. For more information on
protocol support, see the document CewePrometer meter reading.

Communication speed
The meters optical port always starts with a baud rate of 300 bps, regardless of what is configured,
before shifting over to the specified communication speed. This means that software (for example,
CeweConfig) that communicates with the meter via the optical port does not need to know the
speed that the meters optical port is set to. The optional ports designated as communication ports
#1 and #2 differ in this respect. They start at the specified baud rate from the beginning, which
means that connected software must be aware of the speed to be able to communicate.
Communication port #1 can be set at a speed of between 300 bps and 19200 bps, and
communication port #2 can be set at a speed of between 1200 and 19200 bps. The optical port can
be set at a speed of between 300 and 9600 bps.

Modem initiation
If a modem is connected to one of the optional ports, a modem initiation string can be configured
that the meter sends via the serial port. The initiation string can be used to set the correct
communication settings for the modem and can consist of AT-Commands. The meter sends the
initiation string when the meter is turned on and thereafter every tenth minute. During ongoing
communications, the meter waits to send the initiation string until communications has stopped.

Bus address
A bus address can be defined for any serial communication port in the meter and shall have a value
of 16 or higher. This setting is only used for the DLSM/COSEM protocol. See the document
CewePrometer meter reading for more details.

Security
The meter has five authorisation levels that can limit access to the meter during communication via
any of the meters communication ports. Authorisation levels 1 and 2 are password-protected.
Authorisation levels 3 to 5 may be protected by passwords or by a circuit board jumper.

Authorisation levels
1 Provides access to reading.
2 Provides access to everything in level 1 plus access to set the clock
and finish historical periods (also resets maximum demand values).
3 Provides access to everything in level 2 plus access to configure the
meter.
4 Provides access to everything in level 3 plus access to transfer new
firmware to the meter.
5 Provides access to everything in level 4 plus access to calibrate the

Functions

meter, reset registers and change certain security setting.

Limitation of total access attempts


The meter limits the total number of access attempts to six when incorrect passwords are entered.
At the seventh attempt, the meter blocks access whether the password is correct or not. The block is
in effect until the next hour shift. After that, new password attempts may be made.

Passwords
A password consists of up to 12 case insensitive alpha-numerical characters. The authorisation
check may be deactivated for a level by deleting the password. When connecting to the meter,
access is granted to the highest level that is lacking password regardless of the password given by
the user.
If the setting Require COP password compliance (min length 6) is activated, a new password is
required to be at least 6 characters. The setting can only be changed at access level 5.

Security settings
The following security settings modify what can be configured at what access level. The settings are
of the type active/not active, and can only be changed at access level 5.

Permit measuring configuration only at level 5 If this setting is active, settings in the
measurement form can only be changed at
access level 5.
Block configuration of transformer compensation If this setting is active, transformer
compensation cannot be changed at all.
Block configuration of display sequence 4 If this setting is active, it is not possible to
change the content of display sequence 4,
or change its name or activation.

Access restriction via circuit board jumper


Inside the CewePrometer, there is space for a circuit board jumper that provides access to
authorisation level 5 when fitted. If the meter is connected with authorisation at level 5, the function
of the jumper can be modified. Security can be heightened by requiring the jumper even for lower
authorisation levels down to level 3. Security can also be relaxed by making authorisation level 5
accessible via a password. Cewe Instrument can provide a technical fact sheet, tfcr0004, that
describes the procedure for opening the meter and fitting the jumper.

Access restriction for measurement configuration


Generally the meter allows to be reconfigured at access level 3. This function requires level 5 for
measuring configuration.

Functions

Loggers
The CewePrometer has two identical, parallel and individually configurable loggers. That which is
described in this section applies both to logger 1 and logger 2.
Overview
A logger in a CewePrometer can log values for instant quantities, energy registers and external
registers. Some quantities can be logged both by phase and as total values for all three phases,
others only as total values. The table provides an overview of quantities that can be logged. Certain
instant values in the table are not available in 2-element meters and thus cannot be logged; see the
section Instant values (pg. 33).

Energy is logged as register values, i.e. at each logging occasion the current registers values is
logged. Based on these register values, the reading software can present the energy as register
values, periodic energy or as average power. CeweConfig provides all three alternatives.
Instant values can be logged as average, maximum or minimum value during the logging interval or
as the instantaneous value at the end of the logging interval. Maximums and minimums are detected
based on 1 sec. interval snapshots, and average is calculated based on 1 sec. interval snapshots.
Logging interval and total channels
A logger can store data in 1 to 10 channels. Common for all channels in a logger is that that the
logging interval that can be configured from one minute up to one hour. A loggers capacity is
dependent on number of channels and logging interval. When the logger is full, the oldest values
will be written over. The table shows the capacity in number of days before the oldest value is
written over.

Storage of logged values


Logged values are saved with time stamps, tariff information and flags that indicate events that have
occurred during the logging interval.
The time stamp indicates the end-time. If the logging interval is configured to one hour, a
value with the time stamp 15:00 refers to the period 14:00 to 15:00.
Tariff information indicates active rates for energy and power during the past interval.
To indicate events or states during an interval, a logged value can be stored with one or
more flags.
Event or state Name of flag Explanation
Time adjusted T During the past interval, the meter clock has been adjusted either instantaneous or a sliding
adjustment is in progress.
Disturbed D The past interval is incomplete. For example, an interval shortened by the meter being
without auxiliary power or if the logging memory has been reset. The first value after the
logging memory having been configured will thus always be indicated with "Faulty value
(the logging memory is reset in conjunction with reconfiguration).
Alarm A In conjunction with user-defined alarms being configured, it may be specified that an alarm
will also be indicated with logged values. When a user-defined alarm has triggered during
the past interval, this is indicated with the flag Alarm.
Parameter changed P The CewePrometers configuration, calibration or initiation has changed. Which of these
three the flag refers to can be seen in the event log.
Incorrect energy R The CewePrometer can be configured for a normal energy direction, import or export. If the
direction meters energy direction deviates from this, this is indicated with the flag Incorrect energy
direction.
Daylight savings S Daylight saving time has been in effect during the past interval.
time
Voltage V During the past interval all measuring voltages have been lost or missing.
loss/missing
Invalid value C To be able to guarantee that a logged value is correct, it is logged with a control sum. If the
check sum is incorrect when the value is read, this is indicated with Invalid value. This is a
rare event, but could occur if the meter is subjected to powerful, external electromagnetic
interference.
Battery B Estimated battery lifetime is up.
Power loss O During the past interval have the meter been without auxiliary power.
For several of the flags, additional information can be viewed in the event log. A more exact
time for events is specified in the log.

Note: When power is calculated from logged energy values, the resulting values will be somewhat
more precise than when power is logged directly. This is because power is logged as an average
value of instant values. The instant values are read twice per second, while energy is accumulated
continuously.

43
Functions

Behaviour after power loss


When the meter starts again after loss of auxiliary power, any energy accumulated up to the power
loss will be stored with a time stamp immediately following the power loss.

The incomplete log record before the power loss will have the following limitations:
If any instant values were configured to be logged, they will be recorded as 0.
The only notification flags that are handled are D, S and O.
If tariff is controlled using rate input, tariff will be recorded as 1.

44
Functions

Alarms
The CewePrometer is equipped with alarms to be able to indicate when measured quantities are
over or under a configurable limit value. The meter enters the alarm state when the limit value is
reached. An alarm is generated only after the alarm state has continued for a configurable time
(delay). Alarms are configurable by the user and are therefore called user-defined alarms. For the
CewePrometer 1.2.0 or earlier, the maximum delay is 64 seconds.

Note: There are alarms and events that cannot be configured, but instead, are always active.
Examples of such alarms are indication that the clock has been changed or that an auxiliary power
loss has occurred. For more information, see the section Event log (pg. 47).

Overview
For most user-defined alarms, the limit value is specified as a percentage of the nominal value,
which is the configured, nominal primary value (current, voltage or power). For 3-element meters,
the limit value corresponds to phase voltage, and for 2-element meters, phase to phase voltage. The
following table provides an overview of available alarms.

Alarm Alarm state applies when Comments


Low voltage The average value of the voltages is beneath the
nominal voltage limit value.
High voltage The average value of the voltages is above the
nominal voltage limit value.
Low power factor The power factor for the 3-phase system is

Functions

Indication
Alarms are always stored in the event log. Alarms can also be configured to indicate in one or more
of the following ways:
Alarm LED on meter front
Changed digital output level
Indication of a logged value with a flag
The alarm LED stops flashing and the digital output returns to inactive low after the alarm state
passes.

46
Functions

Event log
The CewePrometer has a number of defined events and alarms that are stored in the meters event
log when they occur. The event log can contain a maximum of 100 events. Thereafter, the oldest
will be removed to make room for the new. The meter has a counter for the total number of events
that have occurred since the latest reset.

An event is represented by a time stamp and a code that indicates what has occurred. See Appendix
B Events (pg. 70) for a complete list of all events. For certain events, data is also stored for the
events, for example, which phase the event concerns.

Events are divided into three categories:


User-defined alarms
The meter has a number of alarms that when they occur, generate an event in the event log.
The alarms each have an individual configuration that determines the conditions for when an
alarm is to be activated. See the section Alarms (pg. 45).
Meter events
The meter is also equipped with a number of alarms that are not configurable by the user,
so-called meter events. These have set conditions and are stored only in the event log.
Examples of meter events are auxiliary power loss and clock resetting. A complete list of
meter events is in Appendix B Events (pg. 70).
Internal errors
The contents of the internal data structures, such as configuration and energy registers, are
checked by the meter. If an error is detected in one of the data structures, it is designated as
an internal error. If an internal error is indicated, the event log should be checked for related
information, and suitable actions should be taken. Internal errors are listed in Appendix B
Events (pg. 70).

Display of events
The event log can be viewed on the meters display if the display layout Events is configured to be
included in one of the meters display sequences. Only the time stamp and event code are shown on
the display. A more detailed description of the meter's events can be viewed in CeweConfig, which
converts the code into plain text and displays any related data. Via CeweConfig, the event log can
also be printed out or saved to a file.

Configuration log
Any changes to measurement configuration are logged in the meters configuration log. The
configuration log can contain a maximum of 100 changes. Any further changes will be denied, until
the configuration log is cleared. Clearing of the configuration log can be done with the command
Tool/Reset/Event log(configuration), and requires access level 5.

The configuration log can be viewed in CeweConfig. Each entry describes which setting was
changed, and lists the old value (hexadecimally encoded). The configuration log can also be
included in a display sequence on the meter.

47
Functions

Maximum demand
Maximum demand is the highest average value of, for example, active power during a historical
period. The average value is calculated for an interval and compared with a previously stored value.
If the new average value exceeds the previously stored value, it becomes the new value for
maximum demand. When a historical period ends, the current maximum demand values are copied
to historical registers and then reset. The CewePrometer always stores the three highest average
values from three different days.

Overview
Up to eight quantities can be saved in the maximum demand registers, which makes a total of 24
values with time stamps for when they occurred. The table shows the types of energy that can
produce maximum demand values.

Active energy import


Active energy export
Reactive energy import
Reactive energy export
Reactive energy inductive
Reactive energy capacitive
Reactive energy QI
Reactive energy QII
Reactive energy QIII
Reactive energy QIV
Apparent energy import
Apparent energy export

The calculation interval for average values determines the period during which average values are
calculated. At the end of the interval, the new average value is compared with the previous and
possibly stored as a new maximum demand value. The calculation interval can be chosen between 1
and 60 minutes in the following predefined steps: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30 and 60 minutes.

Example: A historical period has just been finished and all maximum demand values have been
reset. The meter is configured with a calculation interval of 30 minutes and active power as the
quantity for which to calculate the average value. The table is read from top to bottom and
illustrates what will be stored in the maximum demand registers at the various times.

Note: There is never more than one maximum demand value for one day.

Cumulative Maximum Demand


For each MD value there is an associated accumulating register. When a historical period is
finished, the MD values are accumulated to these registers.

Rising Demand
CewePrometer has a function to show the Rising Demand in the display. The value is presented as a
continuously increasing demand until the end of the MD period. During the demand period the
display also shows the elapsed time of the period. When the MD period ends this counter is set to
zero.

49
Functions

Historical registers
Historical registers are used by the CewePrometer to store current register values at defined points
so as to be able to read them later. Stored in historical registers are all maximum demand values,
external registers, TOU registers and energy registers, with the exception of energy registers by
phase. The historical registers are time stamped to indicate when storage occurred. The
CewePrometer can store up to 15 historical registers.

Historical register includes a number of stored registers, and dates/times when they were stored.

Finish historical period


By finishing a historical period, the current registers values are stored in historical registers and the
maximum demand values are reset. When a period is finished, an event is stored in the meters
event log. Periods can be finished in various ways:

Via meter button The period is finished when the meters Menu/Apply button
is held down for more than two seconds when the display
layout Finish period is active.

This requires both that the historical registers are configured


to permit finish via the meter button and that a display
layout for this is entered in a display sequence.
Via CeweConfig The period is finished when a command is given from
CeweConfig or third-party software.
At the end of the The period is finished when the meter clock reaches the end
month of the month.
Via digital input. The period ends when a pulse is received at a digital input
on the meter.

This requires both that the historical registers are configured


to permit ending via a digital input and that an input is
configured for this purpose.

Note: The display layout Finish period will only work if the meter is configured to permit ending a
period via a button.

Lock out time for finish historical period


The Lock out time prevents the user to create a new historical period within a configurated time.

50
Functions

Time of use
Time of use is a function that enables energy to be divided up into various registers depending on
the rate that applied when the energy was measured. In the CewePrometer, tariff structures can be
stored that switch rates at predetermined times according to a configurable pattern. A tariff structure
consists of seasons, day types and special days or rate input. The maximum number of rates is eight.
Day types specify how rates change during a 24-hour day.
Seasons specify the day types that apply during the days of the week, Monday to Sunday.
Special days specify the day type that applies on a certain date.
Rate input can be used to control active rate depending on the state of digital input signals.

Tariff structures
In the CewePrometer, there are two separate tariff structures. Both tariff structures have a set of day
types, seasons and special days. By setting a starting date for a tariff structure, it can be configured
before it goes into force.

Day type
In the CewePrometer, there are 16 day types (AP). A day type specifies witch rate, from a
maximum of eight, should apply when during the day. 16 changing points per day may be specified.
A day type can be connected to a day of the week in a season or to a special day.

Season
A season refers to a period. During this period, the season defines the day types that will apply
during the days of the week. In the CewePrometer, there are 16 seasons per tariff structure. The
seasons are arranged in a sequence where one season replaces the previous at a predetermined date.

Special days
Days that change rates according to a pattern that is not covered by linking day types to seasons
(such as holidays) are called special days. A special day specifies the day type that applies on a
certain date. Special days can be configured to apply every year on the same date or for a single
year. In the CewePrometer, up to 30 special days per tariff structure can be configured.

Rate input
Rate input structures are the only option in Time of use except TOU registers if Rate input are
chosen in digital input. It is not possible to combine Rate input with other types of rates. Two to
eight different rates can be configured for the energy registers and maximum demand. The rates for
the energy register and maximum demand can be configured independently of each other.

TOU registers
An energy register or external register that is chosen to be divided into the rates is a TOU register.
There are eight TOU registers and each TOU register has separate registers for eight rates.

51
Functions

Maximum demand values and tariffs


Maximum demand values are stored together with information on which rate applied when
registered. For one and the same day, there can be separate day types for energy and maximum
demand values.

Example: The conditions are Monday to Saturday, rate 2 applies from 7:00 in the morning until
17:00 in the afternoon. For the rest of the day, rate 1 applies. On Sundays, rate 1 applies around
the clock. During the summer months, 1June to 31 August, rate 1 applies around the clock. On
Christmas Eve, 24 December, rate 1 applies around the clock. For maximum demand values, rate 3
always applies. It is active energy import that is divided in to different rates.

Day types
Three day types must be configured. Day type A to apply to energy during the autumn, winter and
spring. Day type B to apply during the summer months, and day type C for maximum demand
values throughout the year.

Day type A Day type B Day type C


00:00 Rate 1 00:00 Rate 1 00:00 Rate 3
07:00 Rate 2
17:00 Rate 1

Seasons
Two seasons must be configured. The first season will apply during the summer period and the
second the rest of the year. The season that applies from 1 September will also apply from 1
January to 31 May.

Functions

Transformer compensation
Transformer compensation is a function for compensating for measurement errors in instrument
transformers and for losses in power transformers. The function enables the CewePrometer to
present measurement values for which errors and losses have been compensated. The formulas used
in the meter are presented in Appendix F Calculation Principles (pg. 81).
Changing the transformer compensation can be blocked by the security setting Block configuration
of transformer compensation. This setting can only be changed at access level 5.

Overview
The tables present an overview of the transformer compensations in CewePrometer.

Instrument transformer compensations


Name Value to entered
Voltage error L1, L2, L3 Amplitude error as percent
Phase angle in minutes
Current error L1, L2, L3 Amplitude error as percent
Phase angle in minutes

Power transformer compensations


Name Value to entered
Copper losses, Total values Active loss as percent of nominal power
Reactive loss as percent of nominal power
Iron losses, Total values Active loss as percent of nominal power
Reactive loss as percent of nominal power

Instrument transformer compensations


To compensate for errors in instrument transformers, their amplitude error in percent and phase
angle error in minutes are configured in the meter. One minute is equal to the angle 1/60. The
errors can be specified separately for all voltages and currents. When instrument transformer
compensations are used, current and voltage are affected, as well as all quantities that arise from
these: power, energy, etc.

2-element meter
When voltage errors are compensated on a 2-element meter, this is done on phase to phase voltages
L12, L23 and L31 instead of on phase voltages. Only L12 and L23 are included in the calculation of
power and energy. Compensation of L31 has no significance in this respect. In compensation of
current errors for 2-element meters, only L1 and L3 can be compensated for because they are the
only currents measured.

Power transformer losses


Power transformer losses consist of copper and iron losses. They are expressed as percentages of
nominal power. One value is specified for active loss and one for reactive. When compensation of
losses is configured, power, energy, power factor, etc. are affected but not current and voltage.

53
Functions

Calculating loss values


Based on the nominal total power and the measured loss value in watts, a loss value can be
calculated as a percentage of nominal power. It is the loss value that is configured in the meter.
Nominal power is calculated with configured nominal current and voltage.

Nominal power: Powernom = Current nom Line voltagenom 3


Loss value: Loss value = Loss / Powernom 100

54
Functions

Power quality
Power quality encompasses voltage monitoring and harmonics measurement. Harmonics
measurement is described in the section Instant values (pg. 33).

Voltage monitoring
Voltage monitoring monitors three states: swells (overvoltage), sags (undervoltage) and interrupts.
Monitoring is activated by configuring the limit values for sags and swells, and is deactivated by
setting the limits to zero. The limits are expressed as percentages of configured nominal voltage.

Example: For an upper limit of 110% and a lower limit of 90%, and the configured nominal
primary voltage of 10 kV, the limits attained are 9 kV and 11 kV primary.

For 3-element meters, the average value for phase voltage is monitored, and for 2-element meters,
the average value for phase to phase voltage is monitored.

Sags and swells


Sags and swells shorter than one second are registered by accumulating registers. If the state lasts
longer than one second, it is instead registered in the event log with a time stamp and duration. The
accumulating counters and the event log can be read in CeweConfig.

Interrupts
When the average value for voltage falls to under 10% of the configured nominal voltage, this is
registered as an interrupt in the event log with a time stamp and duration. Duration for an interrupt
of less than three seconds, and down to 160 ms, is presented as "< 3 s".

State Duration Registered in Duration presented as


Sags and swells 160 ms5 1 s Accumulating counter Duration not specified

Applies to basic frequency 50 Hz. Corresponding time at 60 Hz is 130 ms.

55
Functions

Hysteresis
Hysteresis means that the limit for a state and the limit for when it is restored are different. This to
avoid several states being registered when the voltage level varies around a limit. The hysteresis
limit is always midway between the low or high limit and nominal voltage.

Communications between modules


The intelligent function modules that make up the CewePrometer are autonomous units with their
own micro-controllers and own firmware. These are connected in an internal network through an
internal bus. For internal communications, information transfer is via a CAN bus. This bus is
designed for reliable operation in harsh electrical environments, primarily in motor vehicles, and
has high transfer reliability and error detection.

Appendix E Frequently Asked Questions
Appendix E Frequently Asked Questions
Display sequences
Which information is not available via the CewePrometer's display?
Graphs for discrete harmonics, vector graphs on 2-element meters, logged values and counters for
short sags and swells. This information cannot presently (meter version 1.2.0) be read via the
meter's display. The information is accessible via CeweConfig and via the communication protocol.
Meter clock
What happens if a new successive adjustment is made when one is already underway?
The current adjustment will be stopped and the new begun.

What happens if the meter time is set within an hour before the change from daylight savings
time to standard time?
If the meter time is set to daylight savings time before the change, it will be set back to standard
time automatically at the approaching time change. If the meter time is set to standard time before
the change, it will not be affected at the approaching time change.

If you set the meter to use DST during the summer period, will the meter clock then change
time to DST?
No, the meter will always have the same time regardless when you set DST.

When summer time starts, the clock jumps one hour. What happens if the user sets the meter
to a time within that hour?
The mter will ignore the new time because that hour does not exist.

When the DST ends the clock will move backwards one hour. What happens if one set the
time in the meter to that hour? Will there be four or two occasions of that hour?
The meter assumes that the time is in DST if it is during that period and assumes it is in normal time
when it is in that period. The meter will not shift twice.

What happens if more than one input is used for clock synchronisation?
Several inputs can be used simultaneously to receive synchronising pulses even if this is unlikely.

How are logged values affected by the daylight savings time change?
According to the example:
Change from standard to daylight savings time
2005-03-28 01:30 3467.4 kWh
2005-03-28 03:00 3523.2 kWh
2005-03-28 03:30 3602.5 kWh

Change from daylight savings to standard time


2005-10-31 02:30 3345.4 kWh
2005-10-31 02:00 3756.7 kWh
2005-10-31 02:30 4132.8 kWh
2005-10-31 03:00 4583.1 kWh
Logged values during daylight savings time are labelled with the flag S. S means that the
timestamp is in DST.

What are the possible consequences of adjusting the meter clock immediately?

79
Appendix E Frequently Asked Questions
Because CeweConfig does not permit the clock to be adjusted immediately without simultaneously
resetting the logging memory, this is purely hypothetical. If it were to be allowed, then if the clock is
adjusted forward over one or more interval limits, there will be empty spaces in the logging
memory and values will be lacking for one or more intervals.
It the clock is adjusted backward over one or more interval limits, one or more values will exist
with the same time stamps. In the worst event, this can result in data read from the meter not
matching the expected period.

Appendix F Calculation Principles

Appendix F Calculation Principles


Current and voltage
RMS values for current and voltage are calculated as the root of the sum of squares for the
harmonic components up to the 31th harmonic.

I1 The currents first harmonic component (fundamental) specified as peak value.


I2 The currents second harmonic component specified as peak value, has doubled frequency
compared to the first harmonic.

( I 12 + I 22 + ...I 312 )
I RMS =
2

Calculated phase to phase voltage


Phase to phase voltage is calculated from the phase voltages fundamental vectors. This calculation
is only made in the 3-element meter; in the 2-element meter, the phase to phase voltage is
measured.

U 121 = (U 112 + U 212 2 U 11 U 21 cos(U 11 p U 21 p)

Calculated I2
In the 2-element meter, I2 is not measured but is calculated for monitoring purposes. It is calculated
from the currents fundamental vectors.

I 21 Current I2s fundamental harmonic.

I 21 = ( I11 + I 31 cos( I11 p I 31 p)) 2 + ( I 3 sin( I11 p I 31 p)) 2


Power

Harmonic component power


The calculations below are for active power, the calculations for reactive are identical except for
that cos-functions are replaced with sin-functions.

P1n Active power in L1 is calculated for harmonic component n.


Pn Total active power is calculated for harmonic component n.
n Phase angle between harmonic component U1n and I1n

3-element meter:
P1n = U 1n I1n cos( n )

2-element meter:
For 2-element meters, only the total power is calculated in each harmonic component.
1n Phase angle between harmonic component U12 n and I1n
2 n Phase angle between harmonic component U 32 n and I 3 n

81
Appendix F Calculation Principles
Pn = U 12 n I1n cos(1n ) + U 32 n I 3n cos( 2 n )

Active and reactive power


Active and reactive power is calculated as the sum of harmonic component power up to 31st
harmonic. The calculation is made with plus and minus signs, where negative power represents
export direction and positive represents import direction.

P Total active power


P1 Active power in L1
Q Total reactive power
Q1 Reactive power in L1

P = P1 + P 2 + P3
Q = Q1 + Q 2 + Q3
For 2-element meters, two elements are added instead of three.

Apparent power
S Total apparent power
S1 Apparent power in L1

S = P2 + Q2

S1 = P12 + Q12
Energy
Energy is calculated by integrating power (P, Q and S) over time.

Definition of quadrants
The term phase angle is described under its own heading below.

Quadrant I: phase angle 190


Quadrant II: phase angle 90180
Quadrant III: phase angle -180(-90)
Quadrant IV: phase angle (-90)0

Active energy
Active energy is calculated for import and export. The direction is controlled by the sign for active
power (+ import, export).

Active energy import: quadrant I and IV


Active energy export: quadrant II and III

82
Appendix F Calculation Principles
Reactive energy
Reactive energy is calculated for four quadrants. The quadrant is controlled by the sign for active
and reactive power (e.g., active power >= 0 and reactive power >= 0 corresponding to quadrant I).

Reactive energy import: quadrant I and II


Active energy export: quadrant III and IV

Reactive energy inductive: quadrant I and III


Reactive energy capacitive: quadrant II and IV

Apparent energy
Apparent energy is calculated for import and export. The direction is controlled by the sign for
active power; apparent energy is registered for the direction that the active energy has during the
same period.

Apparent energy import: quadrant I and IV


Apparent energy export: quadrant II and III
Power factor
pf ( L1) = P1 / S1

pf (Tot ) = P / S

The power factor is calculated without signs and is thus always positive.
Phase angle
( L1) = U 1 p I1 p
Phase angle for an element is calculated from the fundamental phase angles.

(Tot ) = arctan(P1 fund / Q1 fund )


Total phase angle is calculated from fundamental power.

Phase angle values specified between 180 and 180.


THD
Total harmonic distortion

I 22 + I 32 + ...I n2
THDeur = 100%
I 12 + I 22 + ...I n21
Where I 1 I n are the currents harmonic components. The calculation is made in the same ways
for current and voltage.
Transformer compensations

Instrument transformer compensations


Instrument transformer compensations are specified as error in percent for amplitude, and as error
in minutes (one-sixtieth of a degree) for phase angle. These errors can be specified separately for all
voltages and currents.

AmpErr Amplitude error as percent

83
Appendix F Calculation Principles
PhaseErr Phase angle error in minutes
u meas Measured voltage
u Compensated voltage

Amplitude compensation
u = u meas /(1 + AmpErr )

Phase angle compensation


up = up meas PhaseErr

In 3-element meters, phase voltages are compensated and in 2-element meters, phase to phase
voltages. The same calculation is used for all currents and voltages.

Power transformer losses


Power transformer losses consist of copper and iron losses. They are expressed as percentages of
nominal power. One value is specified for active loss and one for reactive.

Iron loss
FeLoss Active iron loss as percent of nominal power.
P1meas Measured power.
P1 Compensated power.
Nom Nominal power per phase

P1 = P1meas + FeLoss Nom

Copper loss
CuLoss Active copper loss as percent of nominal power.
i Phase current.
inom Nominal current.

P1 = P1meas + (i / inom ) 2 CuLoss Nom


Corresponding calculations made for active and reactive power.

84
Appendix F Calculation Principles
Definition of phase order
Correct phase order (123) corresponds to phase position:

U1 p Phase position for U1

U 1p = 0
U 2 p = 120
U 3 p = 120

The same system is represented graphically below. The vectors rotate in an anti-clockwise
direction.
