Schneider Electric PowerLogic PM8000 series power meter

The PowerLogic PM8000 series power meter is the latest addition to the PowerLogic range of power and energy meters. In accordance with power quality standards IEC 61000-4-30 Class S and IEC 62586, the PowerLogic PM8000 series meters are designed to help ensure contractual obligations for electrical supply quality. The meters also have extensive power quality analysis capabilities, such as EN 50160 compliance, sag/swell detection, waveform capture, disturbance direction detection, trending and forecasting.

If a power quality (PQ) event occurs, the patented disturbance direction detection feature helps identify the location by determining if it occurred upstream or downstream of the meter, allowing the problem to be corrected faster.

Engineered on a compact, modular and flexible platform, the PowerLogic PM8000 series meters have the versatility to perform nearly any metering job at key points throughout a facility. The meters are compliant with ANSI C12.20 Class 0.2, IEC 62053-22 Class 0.2S (real energy) and IEC 61557-12. Accuracy combined with the meter’s extensive I/O options makes the PM8000 series meters suitable for the unified metering of all WAGES (water, air, gas, electricity and steam) utilities. Meters are available in both panel-mount and DIN rail-mount form factors, and have high-visibility colour displays.
