If there is unlocked access to the equipment, care should be taken by all personnel to
avoid electric shock or energy hazards.
Voltage and current connections should be made using insulated crimp terminations to
ensure that terminal block insulation requirements are maintained for safety. To
ensure that wires are correctly terminated, the correct crimp terminal and tool for the
wire size should be used.
Before energizing the equipment, it must be grounded (earthed) using the protective
ground (earth) terminal, or the appropriate termination of the supply plug in the case of
plug connected equipment. Omitting or disconnecting the equipment ground (earth)
may cause a safety hazard.
The recommended minimum ground (earth) wire size is 2.5 mm2 (#12 AWG), unless
otherwise stated in the technical data section of the product documentation.
Before energizing the equipment, the following should be checked:
Voltage rating and polarity
CT circuit rating and integrity of connections

Equipment operating conditions
The equipment should be operated within the specified electrical and environmental
limits.
Current transformer circuits
Do not open the secondary circuit of a live CT since the high voltage produced may be
lethal to personnel and could damage insulation.
Insulation and dielectric strength testing
Insulation testing may leave capacitors charged up to a hazardous voltage. At the end
of each part of the test, the voltage should be gradually reduced to zero, to discharge
capacitors, before the test leads are disconnected.
Do not attempt to perform installation, maintenance, service or removal of this device
without taking the necessary safety precautions to avoid shock haza r ds. De-energize
all live circuit connections before work begins.

Operating Range: 36-300V dc, 55-275V ac (45-65Hz)
3.2 VT Inputs – VA, VB, VC, VN (See Appendix A1 and Section 1.3)
The M651 voltage (VT) signal inputs are connected to terminals 3-6 (see Appendix A1
for specific wiring configurations). Voltage signals are measured using a 12M ohm
resistor divider with a continuous voltage rating of 7kV. This ideal impedance provides
a low burden load for the VT circuits supplying the signals. Grounding of VT & CT
signals per ANSI/IEEE C57.13.3-1983 is recommended. The polarity of the applied
signals is important to the function of the instrument.
3.3 CT Inputs – IA, IB, IC (See Appendix A1 and section 1.3)
The instrument can be connected directly to a current transformer (CT). The Current
(CT) signal inputs are connected to terminals 7-12.
Several hardware options are offered for the M651 current inputs. Distinctions are
based on the current option ordered and the physical constructions.
The 1 Amp and 5 Amp current inputs, current input options 1 and 5 respectively,
feature 10-32 terminals to assure reliable connections. This results in a robust current
input (CT) connection with negligible burden to ensure that the user’s external CT
circuit can’t ever open-circuit, even under extreme fault conditions. Grounding of CT
signals per ANSI/IEEE C57.13.3-1983 is required.
Current inputs, option 1: 1 Amp input with internal current isolation transformer,
constructed with 10-32 studs as the current terminals. (See Figure 3A for the physical construction shown for the current terminals). It is intended that this
meter connect to the output from the secondary of permanently installed Current
Transformers (CTs ).
WARNING: DO NOT loosen existing 10-32 hardware that secures the current input
studs to the back panel. When making connections to the current input studs, use #10
ring lugs. Fasten ring lugs with the 10-32 bagged hardware (flat washer, lock washer,
and nut) provided. DO NOT OVERTORQUE. HAND Tighten with a standard nut
driver. 12 inch-pounds (1.36 N-m) is recommended, MAXIMUM torque is 15 inchpounds (1.69 N-m).

Current inputs option C: This option is used with external Split core CTs. External
split core CT secondary wires connect to the current terminal block (see figure 3B).
The Current inputs for this model are touch safe. No internal current isolation is
provided within the meter. DO NOT CONNECT Hazardous Live voltages to the
current input terminal block. Only connect the external Split Core CT secondary
current outputs to the meter’s current input terminal block. Isolation is provi ded fro m
the external Split Core CTs. Recommended torque is 9 In-Lbs, 1.0 2 N -m
3.4 Serial Ports (See section 4.2)
The M651 transducers are equipped with an optional serial port. The port is software
(user) configurable for R S-232 or RS-485. The RS-232 drivers support full and half
duplex modes. See Figures 5-6 for signal assi g nments.
3.5 Ethernet
The M651 Ethernet port meets or exceeds all requirements of ANSI/IEEE Std 802.3
(IEC 8802-3:2000) and additionally meets the requirements of part 8-1 TCP/IP Tprofile for physical layer 1 (Ethernet copper interface).
M651 transducers are o ffere d w i th a standard Ethernet 10/100 Megabit (Mb) RJ45
(copper) interface (10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX) which automatically selects the most
appropriate operati ng conditions via auto-negoti ati on. This interface is capable of
operating either as half-duplex (compatible with all Ethernet infrastructure) or fullduplex interfaces (which allow a potential doubling of network traffic). Note that the
meters come with the port setup as a service port, with Modbus TCP/IP or DNP3
TCP/IP or UDP software offered as an option. An option to replace the standard RJ45
port with a LC 100BAS E-FX fiber port also exists operating at 1300 nm (far infra-red,
full-duplex). If needed, adapters are available to convert the LC to ST connectors, the
same that are used in the Bitronics 70 Series.

3.5.1 Network settings
The M651 transducers come preconfigured fo r interconnection to an HTML web server
with default settings for IP address, SUBNET mask, an d ROU TER ( GATEWAY)
address.
It is very important that the network have no duplicate IP addresses, so an IP address
conflict is NOT created for your network. Setup for network addresses should be done
off-line from the network the meter will reside on unless it is known that the default
(preconfigured) IP address is not already an assigned address on your network.
Changing the stored Configuration of these network addresses may be accomplished
by using the following method:
Enter the IP Address for the transducer through a standard web browser:
To connect to the web server enter the meter’s current IP Address in your web
browser’s address bar. When the web server screen appears click on the “Settings”
tab. Type the new Network settings (IP address, Subnet mask, Gateway) in the
appropriate fields and click the “Apply” button to send the new network settings to the
meter. Reboot the meter for the configuration change to take effect.
The M651 uses the following port numbers for each type of protocol:
Determining the IP Address if unknown:
Bitronics has created a utility program to request the IP address for a specific MAC
address on an Ethernet networ k . The program is available on the company website
(http://www.novatechweb.com/downloads/inarp/). The program uses the Inverse
Address Recognition Protocol to perform the lookup and thus is called inarp. The
InARP protocol definition can be found atwww.apps.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2390.html.
The inarp utility can also scan an Ethernet network for a range of MAC addresses,
printing the IP address for any devices which respond.
Currently, the only Bitronics devices which respond to inarp are 50 Series
products with a release code >= 2.00.0.
ML0039 November 14, 2013 Copyright 2013 Bitronics, LLC

The general form of inarp is defined below, followed by some usage examples.
inarp usage:
inarp [-i <if_ipaddr>] [-n <cnt>] [-p <ms>] [-v] <mac-spec>
where
<if_ipaddr> := interface ip address (default is 1st Ethernet interface)
<cnt> := count of addresses to poll (default 1)
<ms> := period between polls (100ms)
<mac-spec> := <6ByteMac> | <[3-5]ByteMac> | <macRangeName>
<6ByteMac> := xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx - <cnt> can specify a range to scan
<5ByteMac> := xx:xx:xx:xx:xx - default <cnt> is 256
...
<3ByteMac> := xx:xx:xx - default <cnt> is 16,777,216
<macRangeName> := "50series"
50Series MAC base (00:d0:4F:03), default <cnt> is 65,536
-v := request verbose information
CTRL-C stops a scan.
The inarp utility requires the WinPcap and Packet libraries which are bundled in the
WinPcap "Installer for Win d ows." This can be downloaded from www.winpcap.org.
to poll the 1st IPv4 interface,
inarp -v 50series
CTRL-C stops the scan
to poll the IPv4 interface associated with 192.168.1.1, use
inarp -v -i 192.168.1.1 50series
or to poll a specific mac, use
inarp -v -i 192.168.1.1 00:D0:4F:03:00:15

3.5.2 Indicators – Ethernet (ACT) & Serial LEDs
There are 2 LEDs on the rear panel to indicate activity is occurring on the
communication ports. These LEDs are useful i n determining that there is activity
occurring on the ports. The "ACT" LED will flash to indicate there is activity on the
ML0039 November 14, 2013 Copyright 2013 Bitronics, LLC

Ethernet port. It will also indicate that a link has been establis hed . The Serial LED
flashes to indicate there is activity occurring for the serial port.
A troubleshooting guide is found in Appendix A2, which may be useful in establishing
Ethernet connections.
3.5.3 Firmware upgrades and saving and loading configuration files – Ethernet
service port
New versions of firmware may be released by Bitronics from time to time, either to add
new functionality or to correct errors in code that may have escaped detection prior to
commercial release. Consul t the factory for detailed information pertaining to the
availability of firmwar e upgr ades. In cases such as this, it is desirable to support a
mechanism for new firmware to be installed remotely. The ability to upgrade Firmware
is done over the Ethernet port. The M651 family utilizes a page in the Web Server
interface to upload and install new firmware.
The complete M651 configuration, which includes all user-configurable parameters,
can be saved in a single file on your computer. This allows you to save a backup of
your configuration and to restore it at a later time, as needed. This also allows you to
configure one M651 and then transfer the configuration to multiple other M65x’s.
Before initiating the firmware upgrade, if you are planning to use a configuration that
has already been setup in the M651, then you should first go to the Load/Store
Settings page and click on the Get File button to save the IED configuration to your
computer (if you will be using a default configuration this step is not necessary). Use
the File Save dialog window to select the location on your computer to save the
configuration file. Once you have saved the file, it is recommended that you load the
file back to the M651 to validate that it was saved correctly. Click the Browse or
Choose File button and use the File Open dialog window to select the configuration file
you just saved. Click the Submit button. If the “Configuration upload success”
message appears, the configuration file is confirmed to hav e sav ed c or r ectl y. Once
the configuration file is saved to your computer, or even if you don’t need to save the
configuration, you should restore the meter to the factory defaults. On the Load/Store
settings page, select Restore All Defaults to bring the meter back to default settings.
To upload the new firmware, first obtain a copy of the firmware image. The firmware
image is a binary file, less than 1 MB in length, that can be attached to email,
distributed on a CD, or downloaded from an FTP site as circumstances dictate. Place
a copy of the firmware image on your computer then access the upload page from the
Firmware Upload link on the Configuration Settings page.
ML0039 November 14, 2013 Copyright 2013 Bitronics, LLC
30
This will take you to the Firmware Upload page, which looks like the screen capture in
Figure 4.
Figure 4 – Bitronics M651 Firmware Upload Page
Once the Firmware Upload page is visible, use the Browse button to locate the
firmware image on your computer. Next use the Submit button to initiate the file
transfer and installation process. The instrument must be rebooted to make the new
firmware active. At the completion of the file transfer and installation process, the
instrument will prompt you to reset the instrument remotely by displaying the dialog
box below after the firmware has been successfully installed.
It is strongly recommended that you clear your web browser’s cache (delete the
temporary internet files) after updating the firmware so that the new content will be
loaded into your browser. Please refer to your browser’s help file on how to clear the
cache. A useful keyboard shortcut common to Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome
is CONTROL + SHIFT + DELETE, which will take you directly to the relevant dialog
panel. Carefully select the items to be cleared. Be sure to check the boxes that clear
“temporary internet files”, “cache” or “website data” and uncheck any boxes that
preserve data.
If you had a previously saved configuration that you wish to now load to your M651,
you should now go back to the Load/Store Settings page and go to the top box “Select
a configuration file”. Click on the box “Load network settings from file” and then
browse to find the configuration file you wish to load. Once selected, click on Submit,
and then you will need to reboot the unit.

Serial). The default configuration for the serial ports is:
Serial cable requirements for RS485 connection:
Tie RS-485 cable shields (pin 15) to earth ground at one point in system.
The recommended torque ratings for the terminal block wire fasteners are listed in the
Physical Specifications table (section 1.3).
Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) clamp devices are used on the serial port as the
method of protection. The serial port is cla m ped t o a vol tag e of 16.7-18.5V nominal,
24.46V max. The clamps are rated for a peak pulse current of 24.6 max.
4.1.1 RS485 Connections
Note that various protocols and services have different port connection requirements.
When making connections to serial ports for Modbus or DNP3 over RS485, 2-wire half
duplex is required. This is because it is imperative to maintain a minimum time period
(3 1/3 characters) from the time the transmitter shuts off to the next message on the
bus in order to guarantee reliable communications. See figure 5 below for RS485
cable wiring diagrams.

6.0 MEASUREMENTS
Basic measurement quantities are calculated and updated every 100 ms. These
quantities include RMS Amperes and RMS Volts, Watts, VARs, VAs, Power Factor, all
harmonic-based meas ur em ents (such as fundamental-only quantities), Energy,
Frequency, and Phase Angle.
Note: For all of the following measurements, it is important to keep in mind that the
specific protocol used to access the data may affect the data that is available, or the
format of that data. No attempt is made here to describe the method of accessing
measurements - always check the appropriate protocol manual for details.
6.1 Changing Transformer Ratios
The M651 has the capability to store values for Current Transformer (CT) and
Potential Transformer (VT) turns ratios. The VT and CT values are factory set to 1:1
CT and 1:1 VT. These values can be enter ed int o the M651 over the network or via
web page, and will be stored in internal non-volatile memory. All measurements are
presented in primary units, based on these ratios. The web interface allows you to
choose either 1A or 5A for the denominator, and the primary value is entered directly.
The PT ratio is to 1 when entering through the front display. The web allows other
denominators (110, 115, or 120) to be used. Refer to the appropriate protocol manual
for information on changing transformer ratios.
6.2 Current
The M651 has three current inputs, with an internal CT on each channel ex c ept in the
case where external split-core CTs are used. These inputs can read to 2x nominal
(2A
for 1A input, 10A
RMS
for 5A input (symmetrical)) under all temperature and input
RMS
frequency conditions. No range switching is used, allowing a high dynamic range.
The current signals are transformer coupled, providing a true differential current signal.
Additionally, a continuous DC removal is performed on all current inputs. Instrument
Transformer Ratios can be entered for each current input, as described above.
6.2.1 Residual Current
The M651 calculates the vector sum of the three phase currents, which is known as
the Residual Current. The Residual Current is equivalent to routing the common
current return wire through the neutral current input on systems without separate
current returns for each phase.
ML0039 November 14, 2013 Copyright 2013 Bitronics, LLC
51
6.3 Voltage Channels
All voltage inputs are measured relative to a common reference level (essentially
panel ground). See Appendix 1 for input connection information. Common mode
signals can be removed by signal processing algorithms, instead of the more
traditional difference amplifier approach. This greatly simplifies the external analog
circuitry, increases the accuracy, and allows measurement of the Neutral-to-Ground
voltage at the panel. The 7kV input divider resistors are accurate to within +/25ppm/DegC, and have a range of 400V
, from any input to panel ground. Each
PEAK
sample is corrected for gain using factory calibration values stored in non-volatile
memory on the board. Additionally, a continuous DC removal is performed on all
inputs.
The advantages of this method of voltage measurement are apparent when the M651
is used on the common 2, 2½, and 3 element systems (refer to Section 6.5). The
M651 is always calculating Line-to-Neutral, and Line-to-Line voltages with equal
accuracy. On 2 element connections, any phase can serve as the reference phase.
On 2½ element systems, one of the phase-to-neutral voltages is missing, and the
M651 must create it from the vector sum of the other two phase-to-neutral voltages. In
order to configure the M651 for 2½ element mode and which phase voltage is missing,
select one of the followi ng : 2.5 elem ent - A, 2. 5 ele me nt - B, or 2.5 element – C.
6.4 Voltage Aux
The M651 M3 provides a measurement for the voltage connected to the power supply
terminals. This is a differential voltage. The value can be AC or DC depending upon
the power supply voltage source.
6.5 Power Factor
The per-phase Power Factor measurement is calculated using the "Power Triangle",
or the per-phase WATTS divided by the per-phase VAs. The Total PF is similar, but
uses the Total WATTS and Total VAs instead. The sign convention for Power Factor
is shown in Figure 7.
6.6 Watts / Volt-Amperes (VAs) / VARs (Uncompensated)
On any power connection type (2, 2½, and 3 element), the M651 calculates perelement Watts by multiplying the voltage and current samples of that element
together. This represents the dot product of the voltage and current vectors, or the
true Watts. The per-element VAs are calculated from the product of the per-element
Volts and Amps. The per-element VARs ar e cal c ulat e d fro m fund a men tal VAR s .

22
=+
TOTALTOTALTOTAL
GEOMETRIC VAWattsVARs
In any connection type, the Total Watts and Total VARs is the arithmetic sum of the
per-element Watts and VARs. The sign conventions are shown in Figure 7.
When used on 2-element systems, the reference phase voltage (typically phase B)
input, is connected to the Neutral voltage input, and effectively causes one of the
elements to be zero. It is not required to use any particular voltage phase as the
reference on 2-element systems. When used on 2-element systems the perelement Watts, VARs, and VAs have no direct physical meaning, as they would
on 2½ and 3 element systems where they represent the per-phase Watts, VARs, and
VAs.
When used on 2½ element systems, one of the phase-to-neutral voltages is
fabricated, as described in Section 6.3. In all other respects, the 2½ element
connection is identical to the 3 element connection.
6.6.1 Geometric VA Calculations
This is the traditional definition of Total VAs for WYE or DELTA systems, and is the
default method for Total VAs calculation. The value of Total VAs calculated using this
method does not change on systems with amplitude imbalance, relative to a balanced
system.
There is also a relationship to the Total Power Factor, which is described in Section
6.4. Total Power Factor calculations using the Geometric VA method will still indicate
a "1" on a system with phase amplitude imbalance, or canceling leading and lagging
loads.
For example, on a system with a lagging load on one phase and an equal leading load
on another phase, the Geometric VA result will be reduced relative to a balanced
system but the Total Power Factor will still be "1".

6.7 Compensated Watts and VARs (Line and Transformer Loss Compensation)
The total Watt and Var losses can be calculated using five user entered parameters
and measured current and voltage values. These losses are added or subtracted
to/from the measured Total Watts and Total Vars when accumulating Energy.
Loss compensation on the M650 takes the following general form:

sources.
D Meter setting that accounts for the transformer’s no-load-VAR-losses.
E Meter setting that accounts for any “system” losses, proportional to the
uncompensated power.
Configuring the meter to perform loss compensation simply requires the user to
calculate the coefficients A, B, C, D, and E defined above, and enter them in the
appropriate fields in the M650’s webserver interface on the Settings/Input page as
shown in the screen shot below
The sign of the settings A, B, C, D, and E determines whether losses will be added to
or subtracted from the uncompensated measurements in order to determine the
compensated power and energy. To add losses, be sure the settings are all positive.
To subtract losses, be sure the settings are all negative. Settings should always have
the same sign.
Making all of the settings equal to zero turns off loss compensation.
System losses (E) are a fixed percentage, mutually agreed upon between two electric
utilities, about an interchange point that lies on a branched line. As such, E is not a
physical property of any particular line, transformer or the meter, so no further

guidance on how best to calculat e the coe fficient E can be provided here. All
instructions following will be concerned only with the calculation of the coefficients A, B, C, and D. Users who do not intend to use system losses should simply set E equal
to zero.
A detailed application note on loss compensation in the 50 Series can be found in the
documentation library of the Novatech website, www.novatechweb.com.
6.8 Energy
Separate values are maintained for both positive and negative Watt-hour s , posi ti ve
and negative VAR-hour s , and VA-hours, for each feeder. These energy quantities are
calculated every cycle from the Total Watts, Total VARs, and Total VAs, and the
values are stored into non-volatile memory every 15 seconds. Energy values may be
reset. All values are reset simultaneously. Refer to the appropriate protocol manual
for details.

The M651 monitors the change in Phase Angle per unit time using the Phase Angle
measurement for the fundamental generated by the FFT. The System Frequency is
the frequency of the input used for synchronizing the sampling rate.
6.10 Demand Measurements
The traditional thermal demand meter displays a value that represents the logarithmic
response of a heating element in the instrument driven by the applied signal. The
most positive value since the last instrument reset is known as the maximum demand
(or peak demand) and the lowest value since the last instrument reset is known as the
minimum demand. Since thermal demand is a heating and cooling phenomenon, the
demand value has a response time T, defined as the time for the demand function to
change 90% of the difference between the applied signal and the initial demand value.
For utility applications, the traditional value of T is 15 minutes, although the M651 can
accommodate other demand intervals (Section 6.10.5).
The M651 generates a demand value using modern microprocessor technology in
place of heating and cooling circuits, it is therefore much more accurate and
repeatable over a wide range of input values. In operation, the M651 continuously
samples the basic measured quantities, and digitally integrates the samples with a
time constant T to obtain the demand value. The calculated demand value is
continuously checke d ag ai nst the prev i ous m aximum and minimum demand values.
This process continues indefinitely, until the demand is reset or until the meter is reset
(or power removed and reapplied). The demand reset and power-up algorithms are
different for each measurement. These routines are further described in following
paragraphs. The maximum and minimum demand values are stored in non-volatile
memory on the Host Processor module.
NOTE: Changing VT or CT ratios does NOT reset demand measurements to
zero.

6.10.1 Ampere and Fundamental Ampere Demand
Present Ampere Demands are calculated via the instantaneous mea s ur em ent dat a
used to calculate the per-phase Amperes.
Upon power-up, all Present Ampere Demands are reset to zero. Maximum Ampere
Demands are initialized to the maximum values recalled from non-volatile memory.
Upon Ampere Demand Reset, all per-phase Pr es ent and Maximum Ampere Demands
are set to zero. When Ampere Demands are reset, Fundamental Current Demands
are also reset.
6.10.2 Volt Demand
Present Volt Demands are calculated via the instantaneous measurement data used
to calculate the per-phase Volts. Upon power-up all Present Volt Demands are reset
to zero. The Maximum Volt Demands and Minimum Volt Demands are initialized to the
minimum and maximum values recalled from non-volatile memory. In order to prevent
the recording of false minimums a new Minimum Volt Demand will not be stored
unless two criteria are met. First, the instantaneous voltage for that particular phase
must be greater than 20V
(secondary). Second, the Present Demand for that
rms
particular phase must have dipped (Present Demand value must be less than previous
Present Demand value). Upon Voltage Demand Reset, all per-phase Maximum
Voltage Demands are set to zero. Minimum Voltage Demands are set to full-scale.
6.10.3 Power Demands (Total Watts, VARs, and VAs)
Present Total Watt, VAR, and VA Demands are calculated via the instantaneous
measurement data. The Total VA Demand calculation type is based on the
instantaneous Total VA calculation type (Section 6.6)
Upon power-up, all Present Total Watt, VAR, and VA Demands are reset to the
average of the stored Maximum and Minimum values. The Maximum and Minimum

Demands are initializ ed to the mini mu m and maximum values recalled from
non-volatile memory. Upon a demand reset, the Maximum and Minimum Demands
are set equal to the Present Total Watt, VAR, and VA Demand values. A demand
reset does not change the value of the Present Total Watt, VAR, and VA Demands.
6.10.4 Demand Resets
The demand values are reset in 3 groups: current, voltage, and power. This can be
accomplished via the front display or from a web browser.
6.10.5 Demand Interval
The M651 uses 900 seconds (15 mi nut es ) as t he de faul t de man d int er val for current.
The default for average volts and average power measurements is 60 seconds. Three
separate, independent demand intervals may be set for current, voltage, and power.
The range of demand intervals is 10 to 9999 seconds. These settings can be
accomplished by using the front display or web server setup.
6.11 Harmonic Measurements
All harmonic and harmonic related measurements are calculated every 100 ms. In
the following sections , H ar monic 0 indicates DC, Harmonic 1 indicates the
fundamental, and Harmonic N is the nth multiple of the fundamental.
6.11.1 Voltage Distortion (THD)
Voltage Harmonic Distortion is measured by phase in
several different ways. The equation for Total Harmonic
Distortion (THD) is given in Equation 1. Note the
denominator is the fundamental magnitude.
6.11.2 Current Distortion (THD and TDD)
Current Harmonic Distortion is measured by phase in
several different ways. The first method is Total Harmonic
Distortion (THD). The equati on for THD is gi ven in Eq uati o n
2. Note the denominator is the fundamental magnitude.

Alternatively, Current Harmonic Distortion can be
measured as Demand Distortion, as defined by
IEEE-519/519A. Demand Distortion differs from
traditional Harmonic Distortion in that the denominator
of the distortion equation is a fixed value. This fixed
denominator value is defined as the average monthly
Equation 3 - Current TDD
peak demand. By creating a measurement that is based
on a fixed value, TDD is a "better" measure of distortion problems. Traditional THD is
determined on the ratio of harmonics to the fundamental. While this is acceptable for
voltage measurements, where the fundamental only varies slightly, it is ineffective for
current measurements since the fundamental varies over a wide range. Using
traditional THD, 30% THD may mean a 1 Amp load with 30% Distortion, or a 100 Amp
load with 30% Distortion. By using TDD, these same two loads would exhibit 0.3%
TDD for the 1 Amp load and 30% TDD for the 100 Amp load (if the Denominator was
set at 100 Amps). In the M651, Current Demand Distortion is implemented using
Equation 3. The TDD equation is similar to Harmonic Distortion (Equation 2), except
that the denominator in the equation is a user-defined number. This number , IL, is
meant to represent the average load on the system. The denominator IL is different for
each phase and neutral, and is set by changing the denominator values within the
M651.
Note that in Equation 3, if IL equals the fundamental, this Equation becomes Equation
2 - Harmonic Distortion. In the instrument this can be achieved by setting the
denominator to zero amps, in which case the instrument will substitute the
fundamental, and calculate Current THD.
Note that there is a separate, writeable denominator for each current input channel.
The TDD Denominator Registers are set by the factory to 5 Amps (secondary), which
is the nominal full load of the CT input with a 1:1 CT. These writeable denominators
can be used in conjunction with the distortion measurements to obtain the magnitudes
of harmonics, in other words, convert from percent to amps. This is simply done by
multiplying the percent TDD by the TDD Denominator for that phase, and the result
will be the actual RMS magnitude of the selected harmonic(s). This technique can
also be used if the THD mode (denominator set to zero) is used, by multiplying the
percent THD by the Fundamental Amps for that phase.
6.11.3 Fundamental Current
Fundamental Amps are the nominal component (50/60 Hz) of the waveform. The
M651 measures the magnit ude o f the fun da m ental am ps for eac h ph ase. These
measurements can be used in conjunction with the distortion measurements to obtain
the magnitudes of harmonics, in other words, convert from percent to amps. As was
mentioned previously, this is simply done by multiplying the percent THD by the

Fundamental Amps for that phas e (which is the denominator), and the result will be

6.11.4 Fundamental Voltage
Fundamental Volts are the nominal component (50/60Hz) of the waveform. The M651
measures the magnitude of the fundamental phase-to-neutral and phase-to-phase
volts. These measurements can be used in conjunction with the distortion
measurements to obtain the magnitudes of harmonics, in other words, convert from
percent to volts. This is simply done by multiplying the percent THD by the
Fundamental Volts for that phase (which is the denominator), and the result will be the
actual RMS magnitude of the selected harmonic.
Fundamental Volts and Amps c an be used i n conjunction to obtain Fundamental VAs,
and when used with Displacement Power Factor can yield Fundamental Watts and
Fundamental VARs.
6.11.5 K-Factor
K-Factor is a measure of the heating effects on
transformers, and it is de fin ed in ANS I/ I EEE C 57.1 10-
1986. Equation 4 is used by the M651 to determine KFactor, where "h" is the harmonic number and "Ih" is the
magnitude of the hth harmonic. K-Factor is measured on
each of the three phases of amps, however there is no
"Total" K-Factor. K-Factor, like THD and PF, does not
Equation 4 - K-Factor
indicate the actual load on a device, since all three of these
measurements are ratios. Given the same harmonic ratio, the calculated K-Factor for
a lightly loaded transformer will be the same as the calculated K-Factor for a heavily
loaded transformer, although the actual heating on the transformer will be significantly
different.
6.11.6 Displacement Power Factor
Displacement Power Factor is defined as the cosine of the angle (phi) between the
Fundamental Voltage Vector and the Fundamental Current Vector. The sign
convention for Displac ement Power Factor is the same as for Power Factor, shown in
Figure 7.
The Total Displacement Power Factor measurement is calculated using the "Power
Triangle", or the three-phase Fundamental WATTS divided by the three-phase
Fundamental VAs. The per-phase Fundamental VA measurement is calculated from
the product of the per-phase Fundamental Amp and Fun da me ntal Vol ts val ues. The

6.11.7 Phase Angles
The M65x measures the Fundamental Phase Angles for all Currents, Line-to-Neutral
Voltages, and Line-to-Line Voltages. The Phase Angles are in degrees, and all are
referenced to the V
Voltage, which places all Phase Angles in a common reference
A-N
system. Values are from -180 to +180 Degrees. Note that the phase angles are only
available in the TUC register set and use calculation type T8 (see Modbus and DNP3
Protocol manuals for more det ai l ) . As with other meas ur em ents, the Phase angles
can be mapped to analog outputs or used in custom display screens.
6.12 Heartbeat and Health Check
M651 meters provide a Heartbeat State Counter Register that allows the user to
determine the time between successive polls. This counter will increment by the
number of milliseconds that have elapsed since the last time the data was updated.
Another use of this register is as a visual indicator that the data is changing; it allows
users of certain MMIs to identify disruption in the polling of the instrument. The
Heartbeat State Counter is a full 32-bit counter that rolls over at 4,294,967,295
(4,294,967 seconds). The counter starts at zero on power-up, and is NOT stored in
non-volatile memory.
M651 transducers have several self-tests built in to ensure that the instrument is
performing accurately. The results of these self-tests are available in the Health
Check register which is a simple 16-bit binary value. Each bit represents the results of
a particular self-test, with "0" indicating the test was passed, and "1" indicating the test
was failed. If Health status failures occur, the meter may have experienced an
operational failure. The table below provides a reference of error codes. The Health
Check value shown in the M651 web live data page is a hexadecimal repr esentation of
the binary value. For example, a Health Check value of 0000 0014 is the equivalent of
the binary value 000000000010100. The “1” shown in bit 2 and bit 4 represents a
failed test in those bits which indicates a checksum error for both the gain and phase
on the calibration. Contact the factory for further instr uctions.

Please note that there is an option on the Settings/Input page to invert the CT Polarity
(see screen shot clip below). This option is the equivalent of swapping the connections
in the connection diagrams below at the HI and LO terminals for each CT input, that is,
swapping 7 and 10, 8 and 11, 9 and 12. The effect is a 180 degree phase shift in the

A2 Ethernet Troubleshooting
If the Link LED fails to illuminate, this is an indication that there is trouble with the
connection and communi c ati on will not proceed without solving the problem. If a
copper connection is used between the M651 and the hub/switch, check the following
items:
1. Verify that the connectors are fully engaged on each end.
2. Verify that the cable used is a "straight-through" cable connected to a "normal"
port. Alternatively, a "cross-over" cable could be connected to an "uplink" port
(this could later cause confusion and is not recommended).
3. Verify that both the M651 and hub/switch are powered.
4. Try another cable.
5. If a long CAT-5 cable is used, verify that is has never been kinked. Kinking can
cause internal discontinuities in the cable.
6. If a copper connection is used to an external fiber converter:
7. Verify that the LINK LED on the converter is lit on at least one side. Both sides
need to be lit for a valid connection to be established.
8. At least one brand of converters will not output an optical idle unless it receives a
forced 10 Mb copper link pulse (for some reason, auto-negotiation pulses
confuse it). Some hubs/switches will not output an optical idle unless they
receive an optical idle. This then inhibits the converter from outputting a copper
link pulse enabling the M651 to link. In this condition, no device completes the
link.
9. Verify that the fiber converter(s) and/or fiber hub/switc h are matc he d for the
same type of fiber connections. A 100BASE-FX port will NEVER inter-operate
with the 10BASE-FL port (fiber auto-negotiation does not exist).
10. On the fiber connection, try swapping the transmit and receive connector on one end.
11. Verify that the fiber converter(s) and/or fiber hub/switch use the proper optical
wavelength (100BASE-FX should be 1300nm).
