Overview of MPQ1000

The Megger MPQ1000 PQ Analyzer is a hand-held, eight-channel analyzer capable of
performing functions on four AC/DC voltages and four current inputs.

In addition to the Power Analyzer, your system includes the Power Quality Metrosoft
Windows, a user-friendly, menu driven software package that allows you to program the
unit within minutes. This is accomplished by creating a setup on a computer using Power
Quality Software and uploading it to the Megger MPQ1000 Power Quality Analyzer. Each
unit can store up to 90 user-defined setups. Should you need to change setups on site,
you may select any of your programmed setups using the Power Analyzer’s front panel
controls. Your programmed setup files may also be modified using the front panel of the
unit. The software package is also used to download recorded Power Analyzer data,
perform database searches, create reports and chart for analyzing the data and more.

Installing the MPQ1000 Analyzer

WARNING!

Be sure to use all appropriate safety equipment when installing
the MPQ1000 PQ Analyzer. Failure to do so can result in injury
or death.

CAUTION
Inspect all power cords and wires for proper insulation
integrity before connecting to any power source.

WARNING!

Exposure to excessive dust and submersing in water may

The installation procedure consists of:

1. Charging the units battery prior to use.

2. Ensure that the MPQ1000 PQ Analyzer is not exposed to water, excessive dust, and

other hazardous conditions. The MPQ1000 PQ Analyzer is not meant for outdoor use.

3. Making electrical connections.

result in equipment damage.

CAUTION
Turning on analyzer before completing all electrical
connections, or turning off analyzer after removing any
electrical connections may result in erroneous readings.

Always complete all connections before beginning recording. Always stop
recording before removing connections.

Battery

Battery Charging

Charging the MPQ1000 Battery

Always ensure that the battery is properly charged. It must maintain a 12-volt minimum
for proper recording operation. A battery charge indicator on the MPQ1000 display
allows you to view the batteries state of charge.

NOTE: The battery should be charged prior to recording with the unit powered off.

A DC adapter is provided as standard equipment with the MPQ1000. This adapter both
powers the unit and charges the internal NiMH batteries within the unit.

Plug the AC adapter into the MPQ1000 unit using the DC input jack. Then plug the
adapter into a standard AC outlet (110V-240VAC 50Hz/60Hz). The battery should fully
charge in approximately 2 hours.

Battery Storage

The MPQ1000 NiMH battery self-discharges an average of 1%/ day at room
temperature. If left for 90 days at room temperature, the cells can fully discharge. Cell
reversal can occur, which will damage the cells.

Fully charge the battery before storage. Store it in a cool dry area. Recharge battery pack
within 90 days after initial storage - sooner if stored above 30C.

Installation

1. The MPQ1000 is an IP54 rated device. Ensure that the MPQ1000 PQ Analyzer is

not exposed to water, excessive dust, and other hazardous conditions. The
MPQ1000 PQ Analyzer is not meant for outdoor use.

The MPQ1000 comes with an optional strap for hanging the analyzer.

2. Plug the AC adapter into the MPQ1000 unit using the DC input jack. Then

plug the adapter into a standard AC outlet (110V-240VAC 50Hz/60Hz).

Voltage and Current Connections

If you will not be recording demand parameters, voltage and current can be connected to
any input. The connections do not have to be in pairs, but the voltage channels and
current channels must be sequenced.

NOTE: Current probes not purchased from Megger require Megger adapters.

To install the Power Analyzer using current clamps, plug the selected clamps into the
current input connectors then clamp around the source to be measured. An arrow on the
current clamp indicates the direction of the load.

WIRING DIAGRAMS for Demand Recording

Notes on Wiring Diagrams

1. The Power Analyzer records all voltages and currents that are hooked up providing you

have activated channels in the setup. Even though not all channels may be required for
the power configurations on the following pages, you can connect them to obtain
voltage/current recordings, providing you activate the channel.

2. The vector diagrams shown are for reference and represent the vectors associated with a

balanced resistive load. Reactive currents will rotate the current vectors clockwise or
counterclockwise with respect to the voltages.

3. In the 3-wire configurations, you may select any one wire as a voltage reference, but you

must place current clamps on the remaining two wires.

4. In the 3-wire configurations, the 2-element wattmeter method is used for power

calculations. The third voltage and current can be connected to the Power Analyzer but
will be recorded as RMS data only, providing you activate the channels.

Inspect all power cords and wires for proper insulation
integrity before connecting to any power source.

Starting and Stopping a Recording

Before starting a recording is best to verify the current clamps are set to the proper range
and the analyzer is connected properly.

Verify the Input Connections

Before starting any test, verify that you have hooked up all the inputs required for the
active setup program. Press the DMM short cut key to enter the DMM mode. You can
then view all voltage and current values the unit is connected to.

Use the arrow keys to scroll over to the POWER selection. Verify the KW
measurements are positive. If they are not then a current probe may be backwards.
Verify the voltage and current phase angles are correct for the active setup file.

Starting a Recording

Once the connections are verified, press the RECORD button to start the recording.

The analyzer will verify the inputs and settings before starting the recording. The
analyzer will verify the following:

 The default frequency is correct.
 The inputs are correct for the power parameters selected.
 The current clamps are set to the proper range.
 The phase angles are correct for the configuration selected.

If any of the above is found to be incorrect the analyzer will display a message. The
message will indicate what parameters and channel is incorrect and how to correct it.

NOTE: If the range setting on the CT does not match the range in the setup file then the

analyzer will display a message indicating the CT channel that is set incorrectly.

The operator has the option to do the following:

 Manually change the range on the CT to the correct range.

MPQ1000-UG-EN Rev 6 April 2020

Starting and Stopping a Recording

 Have the analyzer automatically change the range in the setup file to match the range

setting on the CT.

 Ignore the mismatch. Please note: if this option is chosen the current values recorded will be

incorrect.

The analyzer will check the CT ranges for each channel individually. Therefore it is
possible to get the same message 3 times. Each message will display a different channel.

Once the analyzer determines the configuration is correct it will start the recording and
the following screen will appear.

This screen will display the Duration of the Recording, the Time Remaining, the Voltages and
Currents as well as any events that have been captured.

During the recording the mode the analyzer does not display scope mode functions.

The user can use the arrows to scroll over to POWER to view the power and energy
parameters during the recording.

 To stop the recording, press the RECORD key again.

If the display on the analyzer is off, pressing the RECORD key will first turn on the
display.

 Press the RECORD key a second time to stop the recording.
