Panel Screen

Branch Ckt Loading

You can display Branch Ckt Loading (Branch Circuit Loading) status if the option to measure current at the distribution circuit breakers is installed.

You can view data for each individual panel position on the distribution panel. To view status of a panel position, select the range that includes the position:

Branch Ckt Loading Select Range: [01..41] [02..42] [43..83] [44..84]

The top line of selections on the screen applies to the top distribution circuit breaker panel on the PDU. The bottom line of selections applies to the bottom distribution circuit breaker panel on the PDU. The panel position numbers on the screen correspond to the numbers on the distribution panel. (Odd numbers are on the left; even numbers are on the right.)

Once you have selected the correct range, press the Up and Down arrow keys to scroll through the list of circuit breakers in the selected range. Poles that are tied together will be shown on the same screen.

Ckt: 03of21 Irms %LD

05: 20A

11.3 56.5

In the example above, the screen shows the third circuit breaker of 21 circuit breakers in the selected range. This is a single-pole circuit breaker, occupying panel position 05. The circuit breaker is rated at 20 amps. The following data are displayed for each pole:

Irms: Measured root mean square (RMS) current of the pole position.

%LD: Present load as a percentage of rated load of the panel position.

Branch Ckt Limits

Available only if the option to measure individual currents is installed, Branch Ckt Limits (Branch Circuit Limits) accesses a scrollable list of the circuit breakers in the panel. For each circuit breaker, the screen displays, in the Loading column, the current on each panel position. This number is shown as a percentage of the rated current. In the Load Alarm column, you can configure the high and low thresholds for the circuit breaker as a percentage of its rated current. For example, if you set 80% as the high threshold for a single-pole 20-amp circuit breaker, an alarm condition occurs if the current reaches 16 amps.

Measurements are displayed as blank when the monitor board is not detected.
