Datacenter Power IV
High-speed protective devices in modern datacenters, such as low-voltage circuit breakers with electronic trip units (ETUs) offering instantaneous or short-time protection, are documented to operate in cases where standard Power…
Introduction to Voltage Sags
Voltage sags are short-duration power quality nuisances that can wreak havoc on sensitive electrical equipment. Identifying and classifying sags (as well as identifying their sources) can be a tedious and…
Automatic IEEE 519 Report Generation
The IEEE 519-2014 standard specifies measurements, analysis methods and limits for harmonic voltage and current. The 2014 version is very rigorous with multiple sets of limits, time intervals, statistical groupings,…
Wireless PQ Monitoring with the Javelin and Revolution
Introduction The Javelin is a utility-friendly cell router, providing communication access to devices in the field such as capacitor controllers, reclosers, voltage regulators, and DER inverters. A Javelin may also…
Canvass Multiburst
MultiBurst is a feature of Canvass which provides a secondary user interface for easily requesting and receiving real-time data from multiple devices at the same time. This allows for quick,…
Recommendations for Voltage Sags
Voltage sag is one of the most common power quality problems. The consequences for not troubleshooting a voltage sag complaint isn't the resulting damage that can be done to electrical…
Holdoff and Aggregation with Canvass Alerts
Email/SMS alerting from Canvass is a powerful feature providing real-time notification about distribution events and equipment problems in the field. Some notifications require immediate truck rolls, and others are less…
Waveform Capture with Transient Capture Overlays
PMI Revolution recorders can record waveform captures and, with the transient capture option, high-speed microsecond-level transient captures. Transient captures have a much higher sampling rate than waveform captures but have…
Advanced E-Mail Alerts in Canvass
One of the most popular, and useful, features in Canvass is the Distribution List, which allows any chosen alert or event, from any Canvass-enabled device, to be transmitted by email…
Alert Level Programming and Analysis
The proliferation of cellular networks has allowed for quick access to information when it is needed. This quick access to information is available from all of PMI's cell enabled products…
New ProVision Release for Handling Large PQ Recordings
With the introduction of the cell Guardian, 1 GB of memory in a PQ recorder is increasingly common. Although the resulting large files can provide a wealth of data, they…
