2. FEATURES
2.1 Description
The Power & Energy Logger Model PEL 105 provides all the necessary functions and features for recording power/energy
data for most 50Hz, 60Hz, 400Hz, and DC distribution systems worldwide. The instrument is designed for full outdoor or
indoor use, resistant to both water (IP67) and sunlight (UL746C f1).
The instrument measures phase-to-phase (U12, U23, U31), phase-to-neutral (V1, V2, V3) and neutral-to-ground/earth (VNE)
voltage up to 1000V in measurement Category IV, with pollution degree 4 (IEC 61010-1 Ed3). The instrument also measures
phase (I1, I2, I3) and neutral (IN) current, using a variety of external current probes/sensors.
A total of 17 types of electrical hookups are supported, including single-phase, split-phase, 3-phase 3-wire, 3-phase
4-wire, open, and DC 2-, 3- and 4-wire.
This measurement data is then used to calculate:
■ Power (VA, W, and var)
■ Energy (VAh, Wh (source and load), and
■ Power Factor (PF), Cos ϕ, and Tan ϕ
■ Crest Factor
■ Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) for voltages and currents
■ Harmonics from the fundamental signal up to the 50th order for 50/60Hz voltages and currents
■ Frequency measurements
■ RMS and DC measurements @ 128 samples/cycle (each phase simultaneously)
varh (4 quadrants)
The instrument can be connected to a computer running DataView data analysis software via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth©, network,
USB, or point-to-point Ethernet cable. The DataView PEL Control Panel on the computer can view real-time data, start and
stop a recording session, download previously recorded sessions stored on the instrument for further analysis and report
generation, and set configuration variables.
Other features include:
■ Measurements are sampled every 200ms and 1s, and can be aggregated from 200ms to 1 hour and stored in
a removable SD card or SDHC card (up to 32GB). This provides high data resolution and detail, especially for
detecting short-term electrical phenomena. For 50 and 60Hz systems, 200ms aggregation is calculated every 10
or 12 cycles, respectively. For 400Hz systems, aggregation is performed every 80 cycles.
■ Aggregated harmonics represent the minimum and maximum values of aggregated quantities for a given
duration. These values can be displayed on the LCD front panel display, or on the computer via the DataView
PEL Control Panel
■ The instrument can be powered from line voltage terminals or an AC/DC power adapter.

2.3 Input Terminals
The instrument provides four current and five voltage input terminals for connecting to the electrical network under test.
These terminals are threaded to provide IP67 water-tight connections.
The instrument ships with five female “banana” voltage terminals that can be screwed onto the threaded voltage terminals.

The number and conguration of probes and voltage leads depend on the hookup type. To help organize these connections,
12 sets of color-coded rings and inserts are supplied with your instrument. Use these ID markers to identify the leads and
terminals.
■ Detach the appropriate inserts and place them in the holes provided over the terminals (larger inserts for current
terminals, smaller inserts for voltage terminals).
■ Clip the rings of the same color to the ends of the lead you will connect to the terminal.

2.7 Installing the SD Card
Data recording sessions are stored in the included 8GB SD card, which also accepts FAT32 SDHC cards up to 32GB
capacity. If the SD card is unformatted, you will need to format it before use. Formatting can be done through a Microsoft
Windows command, or through the DataView PEL Control Panel.
To install the SD card:
1. Locate the card slot on the front panel (see Item 15 in Figure 1).
2. Ensure that the write-protect sliding tab on the card is in the “unlock” position
(towards the metal contacts).
3. Insert the SD card into the slot, with the metal contacts facing up
(towards the top of the instrument).
4. Press the SD card into the slot until it clicks in place.
5. Press the attached cap into the card slot to ensure waterproofing.
6. If the SD Card is not formatted, the
LED glows red. To format the
installed card, open the PEL Control Panel (see § 6). Click Instrument in the
menu bar and select Configure. Then click Format SD-Card in the General tab
of the Configure Instrument dialog box, and click Yes to confirm.
When the card is installed and ready for use, the
LED glows steady green. To remove a card, press down on it until
the card unclicks. It will pop up, allowing you to pull it from the slot.

Power & Energy Logger Model PEL 105
3. SET UP & CONFIGURATION
Before using the instrument for the rst time, ensure the battery is fully charged (see § 3.2) and that the instrument is ready
for operation. You must also configure the instrument for the hookup type appropriate for the electrical distribution system
under test.
NOTE: Before changing any setup or configuration setting, ensure that no recording is active or pending on the
instrument.
3.1 Powering the Instrument
The instrument can operate on three different sources of power:
■ External power provided by plugging into an AC outlet with the AC adapter. When you connect the instrument to
an AC outlet, it automatically turns ON. The instrument will always run on external AC power when plugged in,
even if phase power and/or battery power are also available.
■ Phase power provided through line voltage at the terminals. If AC wall power is disconnected, the instrument
runs on phase voltage power if it is available and enabled.
■ Battery backup power. If neither external AC power nor phase voltage is available, the instrument runs on battery
power.
3.1.1 Phase Voltage Power
Powering the instrument through phase voltage power requires no special preparation or equipment; simply connect two
voltage leads to an AC power line, connect the leads to the instrument using any available voltage terminals (see § 3), and
unplug the external AC adapter if connected. By default, the instrument will immediately begin drawing phase power from
the line.
The Power button glows green when the instrument is running on phase power. In this situation, the instrument cannot
be turned OFF via the button.
Note that you cannot power the instrument from a DC network. Also note that if the AC adapter is plugged in, the instrument will use this source instead of phase power.
You can disable the phase power feature by pressing and simultaneously for two seconds. When you do this,
blinks red once every two seconds, indicating the instrument cannot run on phase power. Pressing and simulta-
neously for two seconds re-enables this feature. You can also disable and enable this feature through the DataView PEL
Control Panel (see § 6).

3.2 Charging the Battery
120V ± 10%, 60Hz
The PEL 105 is equipped with a NiMH battery, which provides power in the event of a disruption in the phase power or
external AC power. Before the first use, start by fully charging the battery.
230V ± 10%, 50Hz
Figure 5
3.3 Turning the Instrument ON/OFF
■ Connect the supplied power cord to the instrument
and AC power. The device will automatically turn ON.
■ The LED lights; it will go out only when the
battery is fully
charged.
■ A low battery charging takes approximately 5 hours.
Fully charging the battery may take up to 5 hours if the
battery is at or near complete discharge. If after 5 hours
the LED does not turn OFF, operate the instrument on
battery power until the battery runs low, and then repeat the
charging procedure.
In normal operation, a fully charged battery will provide
power for up to one hour before requiring another charging
session (although this period may be shorter if the instru-
ment is actively using Bluetooth or Wi-Fi to communicate).
The LED glows red when the battery is low and in need
of charging.
3.3.1 Turning the Instrument ON
3.3.2 Turning the Instrument OFF
The procedure for turning OFF the instrument depends upon the power source. First check to see whether or not a recording is scheduled or in progress (the LED blinks twice every five seconds when a recording is active). If so, either stop
the recording, or wait until it is finished. Then do one of the following:
In addition, the instrument includes a feature that automatically turns it OFF after a period of inactivity when running on
battery power. This period, which is dened through the PEL Control Panel, can be set to 3, 10, or 15 minutes. It can also
be disabled.
■ On AC power or phase voltage power, the instrument automatically turns ON when you connect it.
■ On battery power, you must press for two seconds to turn ON the instrument.
■ AC power (indicated when the LED is lit): Unplug the AC power adapter, and then press for two
seconds. When all LEDs light up simultaneously, release .
■ Phase voltage power (indicated when glows green): Disconnect the voltage terminal leads from the
instrument, then press for two seconds and release it when all LEDs light up simultaneously.
■ Battery power: Press for two seconds and release it when all LEDs light up simultaneously.

on a label placed inside the instrument’s cover.)
3.6 Configuring the PEL 105
Before you can use the instrument for the first time, you must set a number of configuration variables. Full setup and configuration is performed through a computer running the DataView PEL Control Panel (see § 6). This includes setting the
instrument’s time and date (§ 6.4).
In addition, a subset of configuration settings can be performed directly on the instrument via its LCD interface, including:
■ Select the hookup for the electrical distribution system under test
■ Set voltage and current ratios appropriate for the connected probes or sensors
■ Set the aggregation period for a recording session
■ Review instrument settings, such as date and time
Before you can perform any configuration on the instrument, the Control button must be enabled. This button is
enabled and disabled through the PEL Control Panel. When this button is disabled, Configuration mode displays the
word LOCK, and no configuration screens are available. (Note that LOCK also appears if the PEL Control Panel is actively
configuring the instrument.) If is disabled, enable it as follows:
1. Open the PEL Control Panel.
2. Ensure that the instrument is connected by checking its status in the PEL Network frame. If not, reconnect it by
highlighting the instrument, selecting Instrument in the menu bar, and clicking Reconnect Instrument.
3. Select the instrument, and click Instrument in the menu bar.
4. Select Congure. This displays the Congure Instrument dialog box.

Power & Energy Logger Model PEL 105
4. OPERATION
4.1 Hooking Up to the Distribution System
The Model PEL 105 works with a variety of current probes and sensors. Choosing which type to use depends on the cur-
rent to be measured and the diameter of the electrical cables. Each probe and sensor comes with its own documentation,
which you should consult before connecting to the instrument.
The instrument may be supplied with four water-tight AmpFlex® Model A196-24-BK current probes. This 24” exible probe
measures the current in a cable without opening the circuit. The probe also comes in a 36” length (A193-36-BK). Their
performance specications are otherwise identical; although the A193-36-BK is not water-tight.
To connect the probe to the electrical network under measurement, do the following:
1. Connect the probe lead onto the appropriate current terminal. Which terminal to use depends on the hookup
type, as explained later in this section. Note: When using AmpFlex A196-24-BK probe, be sure to screw the lead
onto the threaded terminal to ensure water-tight (IP67) operation.
2. Open the probe by pressing the release levers on the side of the coupling and pulling out the end.
3. Wrap the probe around the electrical cable to be measured.
4. Close the probe by inserting the end back into the coupling.
This is the basic connection procedure for exible loop probes. Clamp-on probes require a similar connection process.
The following table provides measurement specifications for supported probes and sensors. For detailed probe/sensor
specifications, see § 7.9.

The PEL 105 supports 17 hookup types. For each, the following sections provide:
■ A connection diagram. This includes a depiction of the instrument’s current terminals I1, I2, I3, and IN (neutral);
and voltage terminals V1, V2, V3, VN, and VE/GND (ground/earth). The diagram also includes an illustration of
how the current probes and voltage leads are connected to electrical lines, neutral, and ground.
■ An icon showing the direction towards the load.
■ Instructions for how to connect the probes and leads.

labels identify the input terminals functions. For example, I1 connects a current probe/sensor to line 1; I2 connects to line
2, and so on.
The following instructions assume you will use the neutral current terminal and the ground/earth voltage terminal. Use of
these terminals is not strictly required; however they provide a higher level of accuracy when used.
For all hookups, ensure that the arrow on the probe is directed towards the load (for example, see Figure 13). This provides
proper phase angle for power measurements and other phase-sensitive measurements.
