1 OVERVIEW1.1 INTRODUCTION
1 OVERVIEW 1.1 INTRODUCTION1.1.1 DESCRIPTION
The GE Power Management PQM Power Quality Meter is an ideal choice for continuous monitoring of a single
or three-phase system. I t provides meter ing for current, voltag e, real power, reactive power, apparent power,
energy use, cost of power, power factor, and frequency. Programmable setpoints and four ass ignable output
relays allow contr ol functions to be added for specific applicatio ns. This includes basi c alarm on over/under
current or volta ge, unbalance, demand based load shedding, and capac itor power factor correction control.
More complex control is possible using the four sw itch inputs; these can also be used for status information
such as breaker open/closed, flow information, etc.
As a data gathering device for plant automation systems that integrate process, instrument, and electrical
requirements, all mon itored va lues are av aila ble via one of two RS48 5 commu nica tion por ts runnin g the Modbus protocol. If analog values are required for direct interface to a PLC, any of the monitored values can output
as a 4 to 20 mA ( or 0 t o 1 mA) s ignal to r eplace up to 4 separate t ransducer s. A thir d RS232 communica tion
port connects to a PC from the front panel for simultaneous access of information by other plant personnel.
With increasing us e o f el ec troni c lo ads s uc h as co mp uters , b all as ts , an d v ari abl e fr e quen cy d riv es , th e q ual ity
of the power system is importa nt. With the harm onic an alysis opti on, an y phase cu rren t or voltag e can be di splayed and the harmoni c cont ent calcu lated. K nowle dge of the harmo nic dist ribut ion all ows acti on to be ta ken
to prevent overheated tran sformer s, mo tors, c apaci tors, n eutral w ires , and nuisanc e break er t rips. Re distri bution of system loa ding can also be determined . The PQM can also provi de waveform and data printouts t o
assist in problem diagnosis.
Economical system mon itoring or control is possible by selecti ng the non-display chassis model as a syste m
component and adding required options to obtain the desired level of functionality.

a) ALARMS
Alarm conditions can be set up for all meas ured quantities. The se include overcurren t, undercurrent, neutral
current, current u nbalance, vol tage unbalance , phase revers al, overfreque ncy, underfrequency, pow er factor,
switch inputs, etc. The alarm messages are displayed in a simple and easy to understand English format.
b) COMMUNICATION
The PQM is equipped wit h one standard RS485 port utilizing the Modbus or DNP 3.0 pr otocols. This can b e
used to integrate pr ocess, instrume ntation, and ele ctrical requiremen ts in a plant automation sy stem by connecting PQM meters toge ther to a DCS or SCADA system. A PC r unning PQMPC can change sy stem setpoints and monitor values, status, and alarms. Continuous monitoring minimizes process downtime by
immediately identifying potential problems due to faults or changes from growth.
The PQM also includes a front RS232 port which may be employed to perform such tasks as:
•data monitoring
•problem diagnosis
, voltage/current unba lance, pow er factor, line
bc
ca
•viewing event records
•trending
•printing settings and/or actual values
•loading new firmware into the PQM

c) POWER ANALYSIS OPTION
Non-linear loads (such as variable speed drives, computers, and electronic ballasts) can cause unwanted harmonics that may lead to nuisance breaker tripping, telephone interference, and transformer, capacitor or motor
overheating. For fault dia gnostics such as detecting undersized ne utral wiring, assessing the need for harmonic rated transformers, or judging the effectiveness of harmonic filters, details of the harmonic spectrum are
useful and available with the power analysis option.

that the maximum torque that can be applied to terminals 21 to 51 is 0.5 Nm (or 4.4 in ·lb.)
. CT, VT, and control
power connections are made using Terminals 1 to 20. These #8 screw ring terminals accept wire sizes as large
as 8 gauge. Consult the wiring diagrams for suggested wiring. A minimal configuration includes connections for
control power, phase CTs/VT s, and the alarm relay; other features can be wired as required. Considerations for
