• Accuracy over Temperature. Meters drift over temperature. Moreover, hysteresis in drift may compromise accuracy permanently and require the meter to be returned for re-calibration. GE’s auto-calibration insures that normal drift caused by ambient temperature movement does not affect accuracy.

• Accuracy over Time. Since the majority of components within the meter are being re-calibrated on a regular interval, the meter will hold accuracy longer than non-calibrating meters.

• Better Out of Box Test Results. Components from new meters sometimes need up to 1000 hours to stabilize. Using auto-calibration, the components will be recalibrated over the life of the meter.

• Less Maintenance / Lower Ownership Cost. Since the meter auto-calibrates, less meters will be removed from the field for calibration.

Benefits of Auto-Calibration

• IRIG-B: The EPM 9900 meter’s time can be synchronized to the signal from a GPS IRIG-B satellite. IRIG-B has a pulse rate of 100 pulses-per-second with an index count of 10 msecs over its one second time frame. IRIG-B sync has a time accuracy of better than 100 microseconds.

• Network Time Protocol server: You can set up the meter’s Ethernet port to synchronize time using a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. Typical accuracy is achieved to at least 1 msec, depending on network configuration.

• Line Frequency clock synchronization: The EPM 9900 meter’s time can be synchronized to the AC frequency.

• Internal clock crystal: The EPM 9900 meter’s internal clock crystal is accurate to 20ppm. It can be used if IRIG-B is not connected and/or other synchronization methods are not being used.

• DNP time synchronization: Using Communicator EXTTM software, you can set the meter to request time synchronization from the DNP Master. Requests can be made from once per minute to once per day.

EPM 9900 - Power Quality and System Reliability Recording

• Measure power quality indices such as voltage anomalies, harmonics, flicker, imbalances and many other conditions

• Record waveform event on sags and swells, including peak and duration of the event, with microsecond resolution

• Analyze damaging high speed positive and negative transients in the MHz range, which can damage equipment

• Report on events using industry certified IEC 61000-4-30 Class A standards and EN50160 reports

Page 67: GE Digital Energy Meter Products By John S. Levine, P.E. Levine Lectronics and Lectric

67

EPM 9900 - System Reliability Improvements

• Monitor voltage reliability system wide to insure proper voltage distribution

• Analyze critical feeds to determine if power distribution is optimized, i.e.; Is PF too high? Is voltage reliable? Are there too many drops on the line?

• Conduct forensic analysis on feeds and equipment to provide proactive awareness of problems before they occur

• Audit power system for weakness or troubleshoot within the power system

• Alert engineers by email or on a display when a critical alarm occurs!

• Log viewer: View graphed values; Pst and Plt for Va, Vb and Vc or displayed values, including max & min

• Polling: Pinst, Pst, Pst Max, Pst Min, Plt, Plt Max, Plt Min values

• Utilizes 16 Bit Analog to Digital conversion and high sampling rates to provide accuracy throughout range

• High A/D resolution and sampling rates are essential for good performance; lower resolution of sampling results generally in faulty measurements

IEC 61000-4-30 Class ACertified Compliance Reporting

What Is IEC 61000-4-30 Class A?• It is the definitive Industry Standard on Voltage Reliability

Monitoring

• It provides a comprehensive measurement of power quality including:

1. Voltage Interruptions

2. Harmonics (As per EN61000-4-7)

3. Inter-harmonics

4. Frequency

5. Flicker (As per EN61000-4-15)

6. Imbalances (Unbalances)

IEC 61000-4-30 Class ACertified Compliance Reporting

Why is IEC 61000-4-30 Class A so Important?

• It is designed to address the issue of multiple recorders using differing DSP techniques producing differing results.

• This Standard normalizes the digital signal processing so that all monitors report the same results for the same occurrence

• This eliminates confusion in the industry

• False Claims -- There are multitudes of instruments making false claims to be compliant with the class A standard. There is only one Lab known to GE that can certify a monitor, Power Standard Labs in Northern California

• It is imperative to ask the monitoring company to providing it certification documents.

EPM 9900 - RTU Master Capability

RTU Master Makes EPM 9900 into an RTUMastering - Set Up Modbus registers to allow the Nexus meters to poll registers from slave devices

Logging - Once the profile is set up and the meter is polling data from the slave devices, then the data can be logged in the historical log profiles for later retrieval

Alarming – The modus registers can also have limits set points that could be used trigger alarms set-points, send emails or log events in internal memory

Communication – All Data is available via multiple communication paths including RS485 and Ethernet

Perfect for Distribution Automation – Utilizing EPM meters, distribution feeders can be automated WITHOUT changing protective equipment.
