Browser Security and Performance with Canvass
Canvass is a powerful graphical web application for the viewing and analysis of voltage, current, and power data collected by PMI Boomerangs and Revolutions. Hosted at https://canvass.powermonitors.com, the application provides…
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…
Voltage and Current Scaling in Canvass
The ability to store and apply multiplicative scaling factors to voltage, current, and power data is a new feature recently added to the cloud-based Canvass system. Scale factors have a…
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…
Motor Start-Up from All Angles
ProVision has a multitude of graphs available that are great for analyzing the various aspects of motor startup and the PQ issues that arise while operating these devices. Using an…
Voltage Regulation Analysis With Daily Profiles
If there were no variations in distribution load, system voltage regulation would be a simple task. But Ohm’s law dictates that a change in load produces a change in delivered…
Introduction to Harmonic Bar Charts
The presence of harmonics in the voltage delivered to homes and businesses is pretty much a given due to the increase in non-linear loads in use today. These loads include…
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…
Photovoltaic Monitoring with Canvass
The use of distributed generation has witnessed a dramatic increase over the past decade. The two most popular of these – solar and wind – provide a unique set of…
Getting Started with Stripchart Analysis in ProVision
Stripchart data, also known as trend or interval data, is often the most important information in a power quality recording. The bulk of the recorder memory is dedicated to it,…
