1: Meter Overview

1.1: The Shark® 250 High Accuracy Revenue Meter

The Shark® 250 is a multifunction, datalogging revenue meter for both critical meter applications and basic commercial/ industrial metering applications. The Shark® 250 meter is a full four quadrant, bidirectional revenue meter that can also be used for inter-tie metering. Its 0.2% metrology accuracy meets all the accuracy requirements of ANSI C12.20 Class

0.2% and IEC 62053-22 CL 0.2S. The meter has advanced revenue metering features that allow it to be used not only for measuring basic energy, but also for providing a full complement of necessary tools, such as instrument transformer compensation, CT/PT compensation, advanced test mode, perpetual TOU, and extensive logging for interval energy storage.

There is also a transducer only version of the meter, the Shark® 250T transducer, which has the same functionality as the meter, except that it doesn’t have the faceplate or the USB port.

The Shark® 250 meter provides user-configured Block (Fixed) window or Rolling window Demand modes. This feature lets you set up a customized Demand profile. Block window Demand mode records the average demand for time intervals you define (usually 5, 15 or 30 minutes). Rolling window Demand mode functions like multiple, overlapping Block windows. You define the subintervals at which an average of Demand is calculated. An example of Rolling window Demand mode would be a 15minute Demand block using 5-minute subintervals, thus providing a new Demand

1: Meter Overview

reading every 5 minutes, based on the last 15 minutes. Utility Demand features can be used to calculate W, VAR, VA and PF readings.

NOTES:

• If the meter loses power, average for the Demand interval is computed based on energy readings for the time the meter was online.

• If there are multiple instances of power loss during an Demand interval, Cold Load functionality is available only once for Demand computation for that interval. See page 9 for an explanation of cold Load.

Multiple Demand Windows

The Shark® 250 meter simultaneously calculates four quadrant demand with the following features:

• Block Window Demand or Rolling Window Demand averaging, divided into of up to 4 subintervals.

• Cumulative Demand.

• Continuous Cumulative Demand.

• Total Demand Distortion.

• Cold Load Pickup.

• Programmable Interval length of 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes and 60 minutes.

• End of Interval Pulse Output (with optional 4PO1 card).

• End of Interval Pulse Input (with optional 4PO1 or 4RO1 card).

Cold Load Pickup/Demand Forgiveness

The meter offers Cold Load Pickup/Demand Forgiveness, so that in case a power system outage or excessive power system voltage drop occurs, when normal service is resumed, the customer will not be billed for the initial surge or in-rush of power to feed its “cold loads.” During the initial time period immediately following the return of normal electric service, the demand is not computed in the Demand Registers if the two threshold conditions described below are met, so the customer is not billed for possible excessive demand due to “cold load pickup.”

• A power system outage which drops the metering potential inputs to the meter (to below a programmed threshold) and also drops the meter’s power.

• A power system outage which drops the metering potential inputs to the Meter (to below a programmed threshold), but the meter’s external power remains supplied by an alternate source (e.g., station battery, station service, etc.), that is, the meter continues to operate.

Note that energy is always continuously measured and is also recorded in the Power Profile Logs, if so configured. See Chapter 28 in the Communicator EXT

4.0 and

MeterManager EXT Software User Manual, for instructions.

Time Stamped Max/Min Readings

The unit gathers time stamped Max/Min Demands for all power values. Each of the following values is date/time stamped:

• W Demand, Delivered & Received, Max/Min.

• VAR Demand, Delivered & Received, Max/Min.

• VA Demand, Max/Min.

• Amps Demand, Max/Min.

• Voltage, Max/Min.

Transformer Loss Compensation

Optional Communication

The Shark® 250 meter allows you to select up to two optional cards for the following uses:

• INP100S optional Ethernet Option card communicating Modbus TCP and DNP3 over Ethernet.

• INP300S optional Ethernet card with Modbus TCP and embedded IEC 61850 Protocol server.

• FOSTS: Fiber Optic Output ST Terminated.

• FOVPS: Fiber Optic Output Versatile Link Terminated.

• RS1S: RS485/RS232 Serial Communication Option card.

Both the INP100S and the INP300S cards offer enhanced security through the Exclusive Client feature. This feature lets you Whitelist an IP and/or MAC address. When that address is used to connect to the meter, all other network communication with the meter, though the same Network card, is suspended. This ensures that anything being done, e.g., updating programmable settings, while the Whitelist address is being used to communicate with the meter, is secure. You set up this feature through Communicator EXT

software - see Chapter 28 in the Communicator EXTTM 4.0 and

MeterManager EXT Software User Manual for instructions.

The INP100S card also supports data push of up to 15 meter readings to cloud services using the JSON structure, such as Lucid BuildingOS® Data Push. For instructions on setting up the meter to perform data push, see 7.4.2.4: Data Push, on

page 7-22.

I/O (Input and Output) capability is available in conjunction with all metering functions:

• Optional 4 high-speed status inputs for status detect or for use as load aggregation/universal metering inputs.

• Optional pulse outputs which can be programmed to pulse for any accumulated reading. One of the pulse outputs can also be set for an End-of-Interval Sync Pulse.
