METERING
The EPM 2200 Power Meter is a 0.5% Accuracy Class meter, providing real-time measurement of current and voltage and offers optional support for Power, Energy, Frequency, and Power Factor measurements.
Universal Voltage and Current Inputs
The meter allows voltage inputs measurements up to 416 Volts Line to Neutral and 721 Volts Line to Line. This insures proper meter safety when wiring directly to high voltage systems. The unit will perform to specification on 69 Volt, 120 Volt, 230 Volt, 277 Volt and 347 Volt power systems.
INSTALLATION
Unique Current Input Connections
EPM 2200 meter uses two current input wiring methods.
- Method One - CT pass through. Directly pass the CT through the meter without any physical termination on the meter. This insures that the meter cannot be a point of failure on the CT circuit. This is preferable to utility users when sharing relay class CTs. No Burden is added to the secondary CT circuit.
- Method Two - Current “Gills.” The meter additionally provides ultra-rugged termination pass through bars allowing the CT leads to be terminated on the meter. This also eliminates any possible point of failure at the meter. This method is also a preferred technique for ensuring relay class CT integrity does not get compromised. No terminal blocks are required and this stud based design ensures that CTs will not open under a fault condition.
COMMUNICATIONS
Through an optional serial Modbus communications interface, the EPM 2200 can also provide data to RTUs, PLCs and other control devices at baud rates ranging from 9600 baud to 57.6 kbaud.
BACnet Communications
The EPM 2200 meter also supports optional, simultaneous BACnet MS/TP and Modbus Ethernet communications for easy integration into BMS and electrical monitoring systems.
Expanding existing switchgear or installing new metering capability can be challenging due to space limitations, downtime and installation and equipment costs. GE's Multilin Meter Enclosure is a pre-wired configured, economical solution for both retrofit expansions and small scale meter installations that allows the expansion of existing switchgear capability without expensive and time-consuming design.
When ordered as a meter option the enclosure provides a factory pre-wired, installation-ready metering solution that further drives energy cost savings, by enabling the measurement of key energy usage information along multiple metering points for new or existing systems.
Ordering the enclosure is simple when selected as an option during meter configuration, ensuring correct pre-wired meter-compatible delivery.
