ION 7500 / ION 7600 User’s Guide Pre-configured Reports

Energy and Demand

This report is designed to generate and display details about energy consumption and peak demand levels over a given time period. It uses a Time of Use Schedule (TOU) to reference the metered data against an energy provider’s tariff schedule.

The first step in creating an Energy and Demand report is to preconfigure the TOU schedule that will be applied to the metered data. If you do not require a time of use schedule, you can create a mock schedule with only one time period defined. Use the EgyDmd Log as a query item.

Load Profile

This report generates a graphical representation of demand, or load levels, over a given time frame. The profile is a characterization of peak loads that can be used to determine and limit demand peaks which could lead to financial penalties for energy consumers, or could signal a need for additional generation or the introduction of load control programs for energy suppliers.

The Load Profile report also uses the EgyDmd Log as a query item, but it does not use a TOU schedule.

Power Quality

This report summarizes the number and severity of sags, swells, and transients over a given time range, and graphically represents the waveform captures of each individual event for further analysis.

The Power Quality report is slightly different than the other two report types, mainly in its requirements for different data log sources. The Power Quality report requires a combination of the Sag/Swell Log, Transient Log, and Waveform Log.

NOTE

You generate a Power Quality report with a combination of the Sag/Swell logs, Transient logs, and Waveform logs from the ION meters that have these as features. For example, the ION 7350 uses a Sag/ Swell module and Waveform capture to generate a Power Quality report; however, the ION 7600 has the Sag/Swell Log, Transient Log, and Waveform Log, so all three sources are used for a Power Quality report.

EN50160

EN50160 is a general power quality standard used by energy suppliers and energy consumers in European countries. The report is a summary of the multiple pass/fail results of the evaluation methods outlined in the standard. All fourteen of the logs below must be added to each EN50160_General report:

◆EN50160 Vlt Dp1 to EN50160 Vlt Dp5

◆EN50160 Ovrvlt1 to EN50160 Ovrvlt3

◆EN50160 Frq/Mg, EN50160 Flicker, EN50160 Intrp, EN50160 Hrm Vlt, EN50160 Ihm Vlt, and EN50160 Vunbal

EN50160 MSignal is the log used for the EN50160_Mains_Signal report.
