Viewing Events as an Event Distribution Graph

The Event Distribution Graph plots the magnitude of an event against duration on a logarithmic scale in order to determine the importance of the data. For example, a single random event may not be as significant as a cluster of recurring events. This information can be interpreted using the CBEMA Curve found in Chapter 6, Power Quality Issues, in this manual.

∙With the Site Report window open at the Events tab, choose Event Distribution Graph from the View menu (or click the Event Distribution button on the ToolBar).

The Graph Setup dialog box will appear enabling you to make your display choices. An explanation of these choices is given under “Viewing Events as a Bar Graph” on page 29.
