Energy Consumption Metering
Electricity constitutes a significant portion of variable input costs. Measuring energy, power and power factor are important parameters to optimise efficient use of energy.
There are many energy meters on the market. We prefer to use a WattNode Modbus RS485 device as it offers a rich set of measurement parameters which are particularly useful, for example:
-
Phase Current
-
Phase Power
-
Phase Energy
-
Power Factor
-
Grid Voltage
A cost-effective alternative to monitor only energy consumption is to utilise a commonly available energy meter with a pulse-count output.
