Using PMI’s TLAR and TLAR-S Clamp-Style Current Transformers
Clamp-Style Current Transformers (CTs) are a convenient and safe way to measure current flowing through a conductor. PMI offers the TLAR line of iron core CT clamps in both the…
Auto-Correction of CT Hookup
Sometimes when hooking up CTs for a device, a user will inadvertently place the CTs in the wrong configuration. Maybe the channel 2 CT was placed on the third phase…
Measuring Current: Best Practices
PMI supports two types of current probes for measurements: Rogowski coil and iron-core clamps. Their distinct properties and characteristics need to be considered in a particular situation to better the…
Using Current Clamps
Measuring the current of residential, commercial or industrial applications is vital to get a complete power quality picture. This white paper covers various topics to effectively utilize the different types…
Disconnecting a Power Quality Recorder
This whitepaper covers the proper method used to disconnect power quality recorders and remove them safely from their location. Following the proper disconnection sequence eliminates or minimizes generating and recording…
Using the Revolution Mounting Bracket
The PMI mounting bracket provides a variety of methods to temporarily or permanently attach a Revolution or 3-phase Boomerang to a metal enclosure, mounting plate, or many other points. Internal…
Getting Started with the Pole Mount Boomerang
This white paper will explain the process of installing and communicating with a Pole mount Boomerang voltage/current/power sensor (Figure 1). The pole mount option includes a rugged, weatherproof NEMA 4X…
Using TLAR CTs
TLARs are PMI's iron core CT (Current Transformer) clamps, available in various probe and channel configurations. These clamps are used for lower range current measurements, with ranges of 20A or…
Using Scale Factors for PT/CT Ratios & Per-Unit Analysis in ProVision
Raw voltage, current, and power signals applied to a PQ recorder are often scaled versions of the true data under question. Transducers such as PTs and CTs step the voltage…
Getting Started with the 3-Phase Boomerang
The 3-phase Boomerang sends continuous voltage, current, and power information to Canvass, PMI's cloud-based data analysis package. The Boomerang and Canvass provide web-based graphing of 3-phase stripchart, daily profile, and…
Types of Boomerang Units
This white paper is a technical explanation of the form, fit and function of Boomerang PQ monitors. These units are intended to assist utility companies in troubleshooting and maintaining their…
