Understanding PMI Data Record Types – Part 2
The job of any power monitor is to record all interesting data, and leave unrecorded the vast majority of boring, unremarkable data. The tricky part for a monitor is deciding…
Voltage Unbalance with Canvass
Voltages are rarely perfectly balanced in three-phase systems. Although small unbalances are not usually a problem, if this unbalance becomes too great then the unbalance can cause problems especially for…
Oscillatory Transient Ring Frequency
This white paper provides details on how to estimate ring frequency caused by resonances formed between power corrections capacitors and inductive loads using ProVision. Waveform data captured using PMI's Eagle…
Using Bluetooth with PMI Recorders
This white paper documents the procedure for installing a Bluetooth device and the proper communication settings for wireless PMI Recorders using ProVision software. PMI offers several power quality recorders for…
Understanding PMI Data Record Types – Part 1
The job of any power monitor is to record all interesting data and leave unrecorded the vast majority of boring, unremarkable data. The tricky part for a monitor is deciding…
Electric Vehicle Charging and Power Quality
Several months ago PMI purchased a Nissan Leaf all-electric vehicle. The Leaf has an approximate range of 90 miles which fits well with our day to day usage for local…
Calculating Interharmonics with Raw Waveform Data
The Revolution PQ recorder can compute interharmonics in real-time, and also record each one individually as a stripchart. Each harmonic and interharmonic group and subgroup, as defined by IEC 61000-4-7,…
Interharmonics in ProVision
Recording interharmonic data is a new feature available in certain PMI recorders. Recording of interharmonics is a new feature in the Revolution, and requires at least the firmware version 5.66…
Using the CBEMA Curve in ProVision
The ability to record CBEMA data points is a feature that is new in PMI Revolution recorders with firmware 5.66 or later. It is also available as part of a…
Optimizing Waveform Capture Triggering
Waveform capture is the highest resolution data available for PQ analysis and is often crucial in solving tricky issues. Successfully triggering on the waveform doesn't have to be tricky, though.…
Case Study: Ground Fault Detection
The main breaker tripped in a Motor Control Center. All circuits were meggered and checked out, but no cause was found for the trip. Because none of the load breakers…
