1: Three-Phase Power Measurement

This introduction to three-phase power and power measurement is intended to

provide only a brief overview of the subject. The professional meter engineer or meter

technician should refer to more advanced documents such as the EEI Handbook for

Electricity Metering and the application standards for more in-depth and technical

coverage of the subject.

1.1: Three-Phase System Configurations

Three-phase power is most commonly used in situations where large amounts of

power will be used because it is a more effective way to transmit the power and

because it provides a smoother delivery of power to the end load. There are two

commonly used connections for three-phase power, a wye connection or a delta

connection. Each connection has several different manifestations in actual use.

When attempting to determine the type of connection in use, it is a good practice to

follow the circuit back to the transformer that is serving the circuit. It is often not

possible to conclusively determine the correct circuit connection simply by counting

the wires in the service or checking voltages. Checking the transformer connection

will provide conclusive evidence of the circuit connection and the relationships

between the phase voltages and ground.

1.1.1: Wye Connection

The wye connection is so called because when you look at the phase relationships and

the winding relationships between the phases it looks like a Y. Figure 1.1 depicts the

winding relationships for a wye-connected service. In a wye service the neutral (or

center point of the wye) is typically grounded. This leads to common voltages of 208/

120 and 480/277 (where the first number represents the phase-to-phase voltage and

the second number represents the phase-to-ground voltage).

The phasor diagram shows the 120o angular separation between the phase voltages.

The phase-to-phase voltage in a balanced three-phase wye system is 1.732 times the

phase-to-neutral voltage. The center point of the wye is tied together and is typically

grounded. Table 1.1 shows the common voltages used in the United States for wye-

connected systems.

Phase to Ground Voltage Phase to Phase Voltage

120 volts 208 volts

277 volts 480 volts

2,400 volts 4,160 volts

7,200 volts 12,470 volts

7,620 volts 13,200 volts

Table 1: Common Phase Voltages on Wye Services

Usually a wye-connected service will have four wires: three wires for the phases and

one for the neutral. The three-phase wires connect to the three phases (as shown in

Figure 1.1). The neutral wire is typically tied to the ground or center point of the wye.

In many industrial applications the facility will be fed with a four-wire wye service but

only three wires will be run to individual loads. The load is then often referred to as a

delta-connected load but the service to the facility is still a wye service; it contains

four wires if you trace the circuit back to its source (usually a transformer). In this

type of connection the phase to ground voltage will be the phase-to-ground voltage

indicated in Table 1, even though a neutral or ground wire is not physically present at

the load. The transformer is the best place to determine the circuit connection type

because this is a location where the voltage reference to ground can be conclusively

identified.

Delta-connected services may be fed with either three wires or four wires. In a three-

from phase-to-ground. Figure 1.3 shows the physical load connections for a delta

service.

Figure 1.3: Three-phase Delta Winding Relationship

In this example of a delta service, three wires will transmit the power to the load. In a

true delta service, the phase-to-ground voltage will usually not be balanced because

the ground is not at the center of the delta.

Figure 1.4 shows the phasor relationships between voltage and current on a three-

phase delta circuit.

In many delta services, one corner of the delta is grounded. This means the phase to

ground voltage will be zero for one phase and will be full phase-to-phase voltage for

the other two phases. This is done for protective purposes.

volts on two phases and 208 volts on the third phase. Figure 1.5 shows the phasor

1.1.3: Blondel’s Theorem and Three Phase Measurement

In 1893 an engineer and mathematician named Andre E. Blondel set forth the first

scientific basis for polyphase metering. His theorem states:

If energy is supplied to any system of conductors through N wires, the total power in

the system is given by the algebraic sum of the readings of N wattmeters so arranged

that each of the N wires contains one current coil, the corresponding potential coil

being connected between that wire and some common point. If this common point is

on one of the N wires, the measurement may be made by the use of N-1 Wattmeters.

The theorem may be stated more simply, in modern language:

In a system of N conductors, N-1 meter elements will measure the power or energy

taken provided that all the potential coils have a common tie to the conductor in

which there is no current coil.

Three-phase power measurement is accomplished by measuring the three individual

phases and adding them together to obtain the total three phase value. In older

analog meters, this measurement was accomplished using up to three separate

elements. Each element combined the single-phase voltage and current to produce a

torque on the meter disk. All three elements were arranged around the disk so that

the disk was subjected to the combined torque of the three elements. As a result the

disk would turn at a higher speed and register power supplied by each of the three

wires.

According to Blondel's Theorem, it was possible to reduce the number of elements

under certain conditions. For example, a three-phase, three-wire delta system could

be correctly measured with two elements (two potential coils and two current coils) if

the potential coils were connected between the three phases with one phase in

common.

In a three-phase, four-wire wye system it is necessary to use three elements. Three

voltage coils are connected between the three phases and the common neutral

conductor. A current coil is required in each of the three phases.

In modern digital meters, Blondel's Theorem is still applied to obtain proper

metering. The difference in modern meters is that the digital meter measures each

phase voltage and current and calculates the single-phase power for each phase. The

meter then sums the three phase powers to a single three-phase reading.

Doc# E145701 1-6

Some digital meters measure the individual phase power values one phase at a time.

This means the meter samples the voltage and current on one phase and calculates a

power value. Then it samples the second phase and calculates the power for the

second phase. Finally, it samples the third phase and calculates that phase power.

After sampling all three phases, the meter adds the three readings to create the

equivalent three-phase power value. Using mathematical averaging techniques, this

method can derive a quite accurate measurement of three-phase power.

More advanced meters actually sample all three phases of voltage and current

simultaneously and calculate the individual phase and three-phase power values. The

advantage of simultaneous sampling is the reduction of error introduced due to the

difference in time when the samples were taken.

Phase A

Blondell's Theorem is a derivation that results from Kirchhoff's Law. Kirchhoff's Law

states that the sum of the currents into a node is zero. Another way of stating the

same thing is that the current into a node (connection point) must equal the current

out of the node. The law can be applied to measuring three-phase loads. Figure 1.6

shows a typical connection of a three-phase load applied to a three-phase, four-wire

service. Kirchhoff's Law holds that the sum of currents A, B, C and N must equal zero

or that the sum of currents into Node "n" must equal zero.

If we measure the currents in wires A, B and C, we then know the current in wire N by

Kirchhoff's Law and it is not necessary to measure it. This fact leads us to the

conclusion of Blondel's Theorem- that we only need to measure the power in three of

Doc# E145701 1-7

the four wires if they are connected by a common node. In the circuit of Figure 1.6 we

must measure the power flow in three wires. This will require three voltage coils and

three current coils (a three-element meter). Similar figures and conclusions could be

reached for other circuit configurations involving Delta-connected loads.

1.2: Power, Energy and Demand

It is quite common to exchange power, energy and demand without differentiating

between the three. Because this practice can lead to confusion, the differences

between these three measurements will be discussed.

Power is an instantaneous reading. The power reading provided by a meter is the

present flow of watts. Power is measured immediately just like current. In many

digital meters, the power value is actually measured and calculated over a one second

interval because it takes some amount of time to calculate the RMS values of voltage

1: Three-Phase Power Measurement

and current. But this time interval is kept small to preserve the instantaneous nature

of power.

Energy is always based on some time increment; it is the integration of power over a

defined time increment. Energy is an important value because almost all electric bills

are based, in part, on the amount of energy used.

Typically, electrical energy is measured in units of kilowatt-hours (kWh). A kilowatt-

hour represents a constant load of one thousand watts (one kilowatt) for one hour.

Stated another way, if the power delivered (instantaneous watts) is measured as

1,000 watts and the load was served for a one hour time interval then the load would

have absorbed one kilowatt-hour of energy. A different load may have a constant

power requirement of 4,000 watts. If the load were served for one hour it would

absorb four kWh. If the load were served for 15 minutes it would absorb ¼ of that

total or one kWh.

Figure 1.7 shows a graph of power and the resulting energy that would be transmitted

as a result of the illustrated power values. For this illustration, it is assumed that the

power level is held constant for each minute when a measurement is taken. Each bar

in the graph will represent the power load for the one-minute increment of time. In

real life the power value moves almost constantly.

The data from Figure 1.7 is reproduced in Table 2 to illustrate the calculation of

energy. Since the time increment of the measurement is one minute and since we

specified that the load is constant over that minute, we can convert the power reading

to an equivalent consumed energy reading by multiplying the power reading times 1/

Table 1.2: Power and Energy Relationship over Time

As in Table 1.2, the accumulated energy for the power load profile of Figure 1.7 is

14.92 kWh.

Demand is also a time-based value. The demand is the average rate of energy use

over time. The actual label for demand is kilowatt-hours/hour but this is normally

reduced to kilowatts. This makes it easy to confuse demand with power, but demand

is not an instantaneous value. To calculate demand it is necessary to accumulate the

energy readings (as illustrated in Figure 1.7) and adjust the energy reading to an

hourly value that constitutes the demand.

In the example, the accumulated energy is 14.92 kWh. But this measurement was

made over a 15-minute interval. To convert the reading to a demand value, it must be

normalized to a 60-minute interval. If the pattern were repeated for an additional

three 15-minute intervals the total energy would be four times the measured value or

59.68 kWh. The same process is applied to calculate the 15-minute demand value.

The demand value associated with the example load is 59.68 kWh/hr or 59.68 kWd.

Note that the peak instantaneous value of power is 80 kW, significantly more than the

demand value.

Figure 1.8 shows another example of energy and demand. In this case, each bar

represents the energy consumed in a 15-minute interval. The energy use in each

interval typically falls between 50 and 70 kWh. However, during two intervals the

energy rises sharply and peaks at 100 kWh in interval number 7. This peak of usage

will result in setting a high demand reading. For each interval shown the demand

value would be four times the indicated energy reading. So interval 1 would have an

associated demand of 240 kWh/hr. Interval 7 will have a demand value of 400 kWh/

hr. In the data shown, this is the peak demand value and would be the number that

would set the demand charge on the utility bill.

As can be seen from this example, it is important to recognize the relationships

between power, energy and demand in order to control loads effectively or to monitor

use correctly.

The real power and energy measurements discussed in the previous section relate to

the quantities that are most used in electrical systems. But it is often not sufficient to

only measure real power and energy. Reactive power is a critical component of the

total power picture because almost all real-life applications have an impact on

reactive power. Reactive power and power factor concepts relate to both load and

generation applications. However, this discussion will be limited to analysis of reactive

power and power factor as they relate to loads. To simplify the discussion, generation

will not be considered.

Real power (and energy) is the component of power that is the combination of the

voltage and the value of corresponding current that is directly in phase with the

voltage. However, in actual practice the total current is almost never in phase with the

voltage. Since the current is not in phase with the voltage, it is necessary to consider

calculate the reactive power.

The quadrature current may be lagging the voltage (as shown in Figure 1.9) or it may

lead the voltage. When the quadrature current lags the voltage the load is requiring

both real power (watts) and reactive power (VARs). When the quadrature current

1: Three-Phase Power Measurement

Electro Industries/GaugeTech

The Leader In Power Monitoring and Smart Grid Solutions

Electro Industries/GaugeTech

The Leader In Power Monitoring and Smart Grid Solutions

leads the voltage the load is requiring real power (watts) but is delivering reactive

power (VARs) back into the system; that is VARs are flowing in the opposite direction

of the real power flow.

Reactive power (VARs) is required in all power systems. Any equipment that uses

magnetization to operate requires VARs. Usually the magnitude of VARs is relatively

low compared to the real power quantities. Utilities have an interest in maintaining

VAR requirements at the customer to a low value in order to maximize the return on

plant invested to deliver energy. When lines are carrying VARs, they cannot carry as

many watts. So keeping the VAR content low allows a line to carry its full capacity of

watts. In order to encourage customers to keep VAR requirements low, some utilities

impose a penalty if the VAR content of the load rises above a specified value.

A common method of measuring reactive power requirements is power factor. Power

factor can be defined in two different ways. The more common method of calculating

power factor is the ratio of the real power to the apparent power. This relationship is

expressed in the following formula:

Total PF = real power / apparent power = watts/VA

This formula calculates a power factor quantity known as Total Power Factor. It is

called Total PF because it is based on the ratios of the power delivered. The delivered

power quantities will include the impacts of any existing harmonic content. If the

voltage or current includes high levels of harmonic distortion the power values will be

affected. By calculating power factor from the power values, the power factor will

include the impact of harmonic distortion. In many cases this is the preferred method

of calculation because the entire impact of the actual voltage and current are

included.

A second type of power factor is Displacement Power Factor. Displacement PF is based

on the angular relationship between the voltage and current. Displacement power

factor does not consider the magnitudes of voltage, current or power. It is solely

based on the phase angle differences. As a result, it does not include the impact of

Doc# E145701 1-13

Electro Industries/GaugeTech

Electro Industries/GaugeTech

The Leader In Power Monitoring and Smart Grid Solutions

harmonic distortion. Displacement power factor is calculated using the following

equation:

where T is the angle between the voltage and the current (see Fig. 1.9).

In applications where the voltage and current are not distorted, the Total Power Factor

will equal the Displacement Power Factor. But if harmonic distortion is present, the

two power factors will not be equal.

1.4: Harmonic Distortion

Harmonic distortion is primarily the result of high concentrations of non-linear loads.

Displacement PF Tcos=

Devices such as computer power supplies, variable speed drives and fluorescent light

ballasts make current demands that do not match the sinusoidal waveform of AC

electricity. As a result, the current waveform feeding these loads is periodic but not

sinusoidal. Figure 1.10 shows a normal, sinusoidal current waveform. This example

has no distortion.

Figure 1.11: Distorted Current Waveform

The distortion observed in Figure 1.11 can be modeled as the sum of several

sinusoidal waveforms of frequencies that are multiples of the fundamental 60 Hz

frequency. This modeling is performed by mathematically disassembling the distorted

waveform into a collection of higher frequency waveforms.

These higher frequency waveforms are referred to as harmonics. Figure 1.12 shows

the content of the harmonic frequencies that make up the distortion portion of the

waveform in Figure 1.11.

The waveforms shown in Figure 1.12 are not smoothed but do provide an indication of

the impact of combining multiple harmonic frequencies together.

When harmonics are present it is important to remember that these quantities are

operating at higher frequencies. Therefore, they do not always respond in the same

manner as 60 Hz values.

Inductive and capacitive impedance are present in all power systems. We are

accustomed to thinking about these impedances as they perform at 60 Hz. However,

these impedances are subject to frequency variation.

X

= jZL and

L

= 1/jZC

C

At 60 Hz, Z = 377; but at 300 Hz (5th harmonic) Z = 1,885. As frequency changes

impedance changes and system impedance characteristics that are normal at 60 Hz

may behave entirely differently in the presence of higher order harmonic waveforms.

Traditionally, the most common harmonics have been the low order, odd frequencies,

such as the 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th. However newer, non-

cant quantities of higher order harmonics.

signifi

linear loads are introducing

Since much voltage monitoring and almost all current monitoring is performed using

instrument transformers, the higher order harmonics are often not visible. Instrument

transformers are designed to pass 60 Hz quantities with high accuracy. These devices,

when designed for accuracy at low frequency, do not pass high frequencies with high

accuracy; at frequencies above about 1200 Hz they pass almost no information. So

when instrument transformers are used, they effectively filter out higher frequency

harmonic distortion making it impossible to see.

However, when monitors can be connected directly to the measured circuit (such as

direct connection to a 480 volt bus) the user may often see higher order harmonic

distortion. An important rule in any harmonics study is to evaluate the type of

equipment and connections before drawing a conclusion. Not being able to see har-

monic distortion is not the same as not having harmonic distortion.

It is common in advanced meters to perform a function commonly referred to as

waveform capture. Waveform capture is the ability of a meter to capture a present

picture of the voltage or current waveform for viewing and harmonic analysis.

Doc# E145701 1-16

Electro Industries/GaugeTech

The Leader In Power Monitoring and Smart Grid Solutions

Electro Industries/GaugeTech

The Leader In Power Monitoring and Smart Grid Solutions

Typically a waveform capture will be one or two cycles in duration and can be viewed

as the actual waveform, as a spectral view of the harmonic content, or a tabular view

showing the magnitude and phase shift of each harmonic value. Data collected with

waveform capture is typically not saved to memory. Waveform capture is a real-time

data collection event.

Waveform capture should not be confused with waveform recording that is used to

record multiple cycles of all voltage and current waveforms in response to a transient

condition.

1.5: Power Quality

Power quality can mean several different things. The terms "power quality" and

"power quality problem" have been applied to all types of conditions. A simple

definition of "power quality problem" is any voltage, current or frequency deviation

1: Three-Phase Power Measurement

that results in mis-operation or failure of customer equipment or systems. The causes

of power quality problems vary widely and may originate in the customer equipment,

in an adjacent customer facility or with the utility.

In his book Power Quality Primer, Barry Kennedy provided information on different

types of power quality problems. Some of that information is summarized in Table

1.3.

Table 1.3: Typical Power Quality Problems and Sources

It is often assumed that power quality problems originate with the utility. While it is

true that many power quality problems can originate with the utility system, many

problems originate with customer equipment. Customer-caused problems may

manifest themselves inside the customer location or they may be transported by the

utility system to another adjacent customer. Often, equipment that is sensitive to

power quality problems may in fact also be the cause of the problem.

If a power quality problem is suspected, it is generally wise to consult a power quality

professional for assistance in defining the cause and possible solutions to the

problem.

One unit will perform to specification on 69 Volt, 120 Volt, 230 Volt, 277 Volt, 277 Volt

and 347 Volt power systems.

Current Inputs

The Shark® 100/50 meter’s current inputs use a unique dual input method:

Method 1: CT Pass Through

The CT wire passes directly through the meter without any physical termination on

the meter. This insures that the meter cannot be a point of failure on the CT circuit.

This is preferable for utility users when sharing relay class CTs. No Burden is added to

the secondary CT circuit.

Method 2: Current “Gills”

This unit additionally provides ultra-rugged termination pass through bars that allow

CT leads to be terminated on the meter. This, too, eliminates any possible point of

failure at the meter. This is a preferred technique for insuring that relay class CT

integrity is not compromised (the CT will not open in a fault condition).

2.1.5: Utility Peak Demand

The Shark® 100/50 meter provides user-configured Block (Fixed) Window or Rolling

Window Demand. This feature lets you set up a customized Demand profile. Block

Window Demand is demand over a user-configured demand period (usually 5, 15 or

30 minutes). Rolling Window Demand is a fixed window demand that moves for a

user-specified subinterval period. For example, a 15-minute demand using 3 subinter-

vals and providing a new Demand reading every 5 minutes, based on the last 15 min-

utes.

Utility Demand features can be used to calculate kW, kVAR, kVA and PF readings. All

other parameters offer Max and Min capability over the user-selectable averaging

period. Voltage provides an instantaneous Max and Min reading which displays the

highest surge and lowest sag seen by the meter.

4.1: Considerations When Installing Meters

Installation of the Shark® 100/50 meter must be performed only by
qualified personnel who follow standard safety precautions during all
procedures. Those personnel should have appropriate training and
experience with high voltage devices. Appropriate safety gloves,
safety glasses and protective clothing is recommended.

During normal operation of the Shark® 100/50 meter, dangerous voltages flow
through many parts of the meter, including: Terminals and any connected CTs (Cur­rent Transformers) and PTs (Potential Transformers), all I/O Modules (Inputs and Out­puts) and their circuits.

All Primary and Secondary circuits can, at times, produce lethal voltages and cur­rents. Avoid contact with any current-carrying surfaces.

Do not use the meter or any I/O Output Device for primary protection or in
an energy-limiting capacity. The meter can only be used as secondary pro­tection.

Do not use the meter for applications where failure of the meter may cause harm or
death.

Do not use the meter for any application where there may be a risk of fire.

All meter terminals should be inaccessible after installation.

Do not apply more than the maximum voltage the meter or any attached device can
withstand. Refer to meter and/or device labels and to the Specifications for all devices
before applying voltages.

Do not HIPOT/Dielectric test any Outputs, Inputs or Communications terminals.

EIG recommends the use of Fuses for voltage leads and power supply and Shorting
Blocks to prevent hazardous voltage conditions or damage to CTs, if the meter needs
to be removed from service. CT grounding is optional, but recommended.
NOTE: The current inputs are only to be connected to external current transformers
provided by the installer. The CT's shall be Listed or Approved and rated for the
current of the meter used.

utilisé comme une protection secondaire.

Ne pas utiliser le compteur pour application dans laquelle une panne de compteur
peut causer la mort ou des blessures graves.

Ne pas utiliser le compteur ou pour toute application dans laquelle un risque
d'incendie est susceptible.

Toutes les bornes de compteur doivent être inaccessibles après l'installation.

Ne pas appliquer plus que la tension maximale que le compteur ou appareil relatif
peut résister. Référez-vous au compteur ou aux étiquettes de l'appareil et les spécifi­cations de tous les appareils avant d'appliquer les tensions. Ne pas faire de test
HIPOT/diélectrique, une sortie, une entrée ou un terminal de réseau.

Les entrées actuelles doivent seulement être branchées aux transformateurs externes
actuels.

EIG recommande d'utiliser les fusibles pour les fils de tension et alimentations élec­triques, ainsi que des coupe-circuits pour prévenir les tensions dangereuses ou

4.2: CT Leads Terminated to Meter

The Shark® 100/50 meter is designed to have current inputs wired in one of three
ways. Figure 4.1 shows the most typical connection where CT Leads are terminated to
the meter at the current gills. This connection uses nickel-plated br ass studs (current
gills) with screws at each end. This connection allows the CT wires to be terminated
using either an “O” or a “U” lug. Tighten the screws with a #2 Phillips screwdriver. The
maximum installation torque is 1 Newton-Meter.

Other current connections are shown in Figures 4.2 and 4.3. Voltage and RS485/KYZ
Connection is shown in Figure 4.4.

NOTE: Figures 4.1 - 4.4 show the back of a meter with the 485P option. If y our meter
is a Shark® 100B or is a Shark® 100 with the INP10 option, you will see an RJ45 port
and KYZ Pulse Output on the back of the meter.

4.3: CT Leads Pass Through (No Meter Termination)

The second method allows the CT wires to pass through the CT inputs without termi­nating at the meter. In this case, remove the current gills and place the CT wire
directly through the CT opening. The opening accommodates up to 0.177” / 4.5mm
maximum diameter CT wire.

4.9: Extended Surge Protection for Substation Instrumentation

EIG offers a surge protector for applications with harsh electrical conditions. The
surge protector is EI-MSB10-400 and it can be ordered from EIG’s webstore:
www.electroind.com/store.

The EI-MSB10-400 surge protector is designed to protect sensitive equipment from
the damaging effects of lightning strikes and/or industrial switching surges in single
phase AC networks up to 320VAC (L-N / L-G), and DC networks up to 400 VDC. The
protectors are ideal for metering systems, RTUs, PLCs and protective relays. They are
used specifically to extend the life and increase reliability of critical control appar atus.

For best protection, it is recommended to use two protectors. These will protect the
instrument on the line inputs and on the reference input to ground. The protectors
have LED indication to annunciate when the protection has worn out.

The EI-MSB10-400 is connected by wires in parallel with the network to be protected.
It can be easily mounted on a wall or plate with self-adhesive tape.

See the wiring diagram below.

RS485 allows you to connect one or multiple Shark® 100/50 meters to a PC or other

device, at either a local or remote site. All RS485 connections are viable for up to

4000 feet (1219.20 meters).

Figure 5.3: Shark® 100/50 Connected to PC via RS485

As shown in Figure 5.3, to connect a Shark® 100/50 to a PC, you need to use an

RS485 to RS232 converter, such as EIG’s Unicom 2500. See Section 5.1.2.1 for infor-

mation on using the Unicom 2500 with the Shark® 100/50.

NOTES For All RS485 Connections:

• Use a shielded twisted pair cable 22 AWG (0.33 mm2) or larger, grounding the

shield at one end only.

• Establish point-to-point configurations for each device on a RS485 bus: connect (+)

terminals to (+) terminals; connect (-) terminals to (-) terminals.

• You may connect up to 31 meters on a single bus using RS485. Before assembling

the bus, each meter must be assigned a unique address: refer to Chapter 5 of the

• Protect cables from sources of electrical noise.

• Avoid both “Star” and “Tee” connections (see Figure 5.6).

• No more than two cables should be connected at any one point on an RS485

network, whether the connections are for devices, converters, or terminal strips.

• Include all segments when calculating the total cable length of a network. If you are

not using an RS485 repeater, the maximum length for cable connecting all devices

is 4000 feet (1219.20 meters).

• Connect shield to RS485 Master and individual devices as shown in Figure 5.5. You

may also connect the shield to earth-ground at one point.

• Termination Resistors (RT) may be needed on both ends of longer length transmis-

sion lines. However, since the meter has some level of termination internally,

Termination Resistors may not be needed. When they are used, the value of the

Termination Resistors is determined by the electrical parameters of the cable.

Shark® 100/50 uses a 2-wire connection, you

need to add jumper wires to convert the Unicom

2500 to the 2-wire configuration. As shown in

Figure 5.7, you connect the “RX -” and “TX -”

v

terminals with a jumper wire to make the “-”

terminal, and connect the “RX +” and “TX +”

terminals with a jumper wire to make the “+”

terminal. See the figure on the right for the Uni-

6: Using the Shark® 100/50 Meter

If you have a Shark® 100/100B/50 meter, you can use the Elements and Buttons on

the meter’s face to view meter readings, reset and/or configure the meter, and per-

form related functions. Since the Shark® 100T/100BT transducer does not have a

faceplate, you configure the transducer through communication (see Chapter 5 for an

explanation of meter/transducer communication options) using Communicator EXT

software. You can also use this software to configure the Shark® 100/100B/50

meters through communication.

The following sections explain meter programming, first by using the faceplate and

then with Communicator EXT
