EasyLogic™ PM1130H Conzerv™ EM6438H Introduction
Introduction
Meter overview
The PM1130H / EM6438H series meters are dual source meters that offer
comprehensive 3-phase electrical instrumentation and load management facilities
in a compact and rugged package.
The PM1130H / EM6438H meters offer value for the demanding needs of your
energy monitoring and cost management applications. Meters in the series range
comply with Class 0.5 (PM1130H & EM6438H) and Class 1.0(EM6438H)
accuracy standards and feature high quality, reliability and affordability in a
compact and easy to install format.
Meter features
The PM1130H / EM6438H meter supports many features, a few of the features
are listed below:
• LED display screen: Intuitive self-guided navigation using four buttons LED
display, with three lines of concurrent values, and load bar that indicates
current loading
• Energy accounting and balancing
• Relay (PM1130H only), alternate source, and RS-485
• THD% for voltage and current, per-phase
• Active, reactive, and apparent energy readings
• Cyber security: The meter enables disabling the RS-485 port through front
panel keys against unauthorized access. This feature can also be used for
toggling between the RTU devices in case of limited availability of nodes in
software system
• Measurement of True PF
You can use the meter as a stand-alone device, but its extensive capabilities are
fully realized when used as part of an energy management system.
For applications, feature details, and the most current and complete specifications
of the PM1130H / EM6438H meters, see the technical datasheet at www.se.com.
Application
Your device can be used for dual source accounting applications that involve two
energy registers, for example Utility vs Genset, Utility vs Solar, Utility vs Wind, or a
combination of any two-power source.
Your device can also be used in installations that require split energy monitoring
for two conditions, for example, running and idle. You can form a relay to control
the load in event of abnormalities such as excessive power consumption or
electric faults.
The meters can be used for secondary billing application in large commercial
complexes or buildings as tenant meters in custom panels, switch boards, switch-
gear, Gen-set panels, non-renewable energy panels, and OEM panel boards.
Prepaid metering
A prepaid metering system enables customers to pay money to the facility
management in advance for a fixed energy value. Prepaid metering is
advantageous to both, the facility management and customers. While the facility
10 QGH1336303-03
Introduction EasyLogic™ PM1130H Conzerv™ EM6438H
management can eliminate meter readings and get advanced payments, the
customers can be freed of penalty through already stored energy consumption as
against unit consumption.
The meter supports prepaid energy metering. Customers can add on energy
credits to the balance register of the meter through communication only. The
meter starts deducting the units based on energy consumption.
The customer can set a minimum value for energy credits consumption, beyond
which the meter raises an alarm. The meter indicates the alarm through front
panel LED, by blinking the top most LED on the load bar. In situations where the
energy credits get exhausted, the meter switches on the relay. Beyond which, if
the energy consumption continues, the meter keeps accumulating negative
balance. When the customers recharge the next time, the negative accumulated
energy will get deducted and only the balance energy will get credited for use.
The facility management can configure any one of the power source, that is Utility,
Alternate Source, or Total (Utility + Alternate Source) based on the billing system.
Cost management
Your device can be used in various cost management applications.
Some of the applications are as mentioned below:
• Measurement of basic electrical parameters in control panels, power
distribution boards, OEM’s, Building management systems, and panel
instrumentation
• Aggregate energy consumption and cost allocation based on consumption
from Utility vs Genset, or between any two power sources, per area, per shift,
and per time within the same facility
Network management
Your device can be used in various network management applications.
Some of the applications are as mentioned below:
• Power quality analysis (THD %)

Serial communications
The meter supports serial communication through the RS-485 port.
In an RS-485 network, there is one master device, typically an Ethernet to RS-485
gateway. It provides the means for RS-485 communications with multiple slave
devices (for example, meters). For applications that require only one dedicated
computer to communicate with the slave devices, an RS-232 to RS-485 converter
can be used as the master device. In master device, recommended response
time-out setting should be minimum 1 second.
RS-485 configuration
Before connecting your device to the RS-485 bus, use the meter’s display, or ION
Setup to configure your meter’s default RS-485 settings.
Your meter has one RS-485 connection.
Your meter must have a unique unit identifier (address) and have the following
settings match the rest of the devices on the RS-485 bus:
• Protocol
• Baud rate
• Parity
You can use a communications converter (USB to RS-485 or RS-232 to RS-485)

Relay
Relay is used to trigger an alarm or a secondary system based on a preset
condition in the meter.
The relay is Normally Open (NO) when not triggered. When triggered (operated) it
changes to Normally Closed (NC).
A relay can be triggered depending on source of operation. The supplied source
can be utility, alternate source, or both.
The following parameters are associated to trigger a relay. The relay gets trigger if
the mentioned conditions are met.

Relay and Alternate source sense EasyLogic™ PM1130H Conzerv™ EM6438H
Two different parameters can be set simultaneously for the relay trigger
functionality with separate upper and lower limits for each parameter.
• Parameter associated with Source 1 (or 2)
• Parameter associated with Source 2 (or 1) or both (1 and 2)
For a relay to operate, the power or demand parameter must be same as
configured in the meter. The meter does not allow users to configure any other
parameter apart from the configured power or demand parameters.
NOTE: Configuration is not allowed if both parameters are same.
Only one parameter can be configured, associating it with the source (as per the
system connected). The other parameter must be set to zero (with zero as UL and
zero as LL).
To trigger or restore a relay status, you can manually program a time delay. The
delay can be set between 1-60 seconds. The set time enables the triggering or
restoration of the associated relay during a fault occurrences.

Power demand
Power demand is a measure of average power consumption over a fixed time
interval.
Only one demand parameter can be set at a given time. You can set it using the
meter’s display, through communication using ION setup, or by using any Modbus
tool that supports FC16.
The list of demand parameters that can be configured are :
• VA demand
• VAR demand
• W demand
Last demand: This demand updates in the NVRAM of the meter at the end of a
demand interval. The present value at the end of the demand interval updates to
last demand.
Present demand: The demand calculated by dividing energy accumulated during
a specified period by length of that period.
Peak demand: Peak Demand is the highest recorded demand value in NVRAM. It
is not dependent on any interval or cycle. Unless there is no value recorded higher
than the current value of the peak demand, the peak demand value will not
update. The meter displays the peak demand occurrence time. The meter takes a
snapshot of meter On hours at which the peak demand occurred.
NOTE: This value gets cleared or reset when demand configuration is
changed to other configuration parameter or when the demand parameter is
reset in the meter.
The meter measures instantaneous consumption and can calculate demand using
various methods.

EasyLogic™ PM1130H Conzerv™ EM6438H Power quality
Power quality
Harmonics overview
This section describes the meter’s power quality features and how to access
power quality data. The meter measures voltage and current harmonics up to the
15th harmonic to calculate Total Harmonic Distortion (THD%).
Harmonics are integer multiples of the fundamental frequency of the power
system. Harmonics information is required for compliance to system power quality
standards such as EN50160 and meter power quality standards such as IEC
61000-4-30.
The meter measures fundamental and higher harmonics relative to the
fundamental frequency. The meter’s power system setting defines which phases
are present and determines how line-to-line or line-to-neutral voltage harmonics
and current harmonics are calculated.
Harmonics are used to identify whether the supplied system power meets required
power quality standards, or if non-linear loads are affecting your power system.
Power system harmonics can cause current flow on the neutral conductor, and
damage to equipment such as increased heating in electric motors. Power
conditioners or harmonic filters can be used to minimize unwanted harmonics.
THD% calculations
THD% is a quick measure of the total distortion present in a waveform and is the
ratio of harmonic content (HC) to the fundamental harmonic (H1).
By default, the meter uses the following equation to calculate THD%:
HC
THD = -------
- x 100%
H1
NOTE:
The LED rows display V1THD%, V2THD%, and V3THD% for VTHD% values, and

Verifying accuracy
Overview of meter accuracy
All meters are tested and verified at the factory in accordance with International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers (IEEE) standards.
Your meter typically does not require re-calibration. However, in some installations
a final accuracy verification of the meters is required, especially if the meters will
be used for revenue or billing applications.
DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH
Verify the device’s power source meets the specifications for your device’s
power supply.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
Control equipment
Control equipment is required for counting and timing the pulse outputs from an
energy pulsing LED.
• Most standard test benches have an arm equipped with optical sensors to
detect LED pulses (the photodiode circuitry converts detected light into a
voltage signal).
• The reference device or energy standard typically has digital inputs that can
detect and count pulses coming from an external source (i.e., the meter’s
pulse output).
NOTE: The optical sensors on the test bench can be disrupted by strong
sources of ambient light (such as camera flashes, florescent tubes, sunlight
reflections, floodlights, etc.). This can cause test errors. Use a hood, if
necessary, to block out ambient light.
Environment
The meter should be tested at the same temperature as the testing equipment.
The ideal temperature is about 23 ºC (73 ºF). Make sure the meter is warmed up
sufficiently before testing.

Inductive load (lagging 100% of the nominal current, 100% of the nominal voltage and nominal
power factor) frequency at 0.87 lagging power factor (current lagging voltage by 30°
phase angle).
The pulse rate depends on the voltage, current and PF of the input signal source,
the number of phases, and the VT and CT ratios.
If Ptot is the instantaneous power (in kW) and K is the pulse constant (in pulses
per kWh), then the pulse period is:
3600 1
Pulse period (in seconds) = =
K x Ptot Pulse frequency (Hz)
VT and CT considerations
Total power (Ptot) is derived from the values of the voltage and current inputs at
the secondary side, and takes into account the VT and CT ratios.
The test points are always taken at the secondary side, regardless of whether VTs
or CTs are used.
If VTs and CTs are used, you must include their primary and secondary ratings in
the equation. For example, in a balanced 3-phase Wye system with VTs and CTs:
VTp CTp 1 kW
Ptot = 3 x VLN x xIx x PF x
VTs CTs 1000 W
where Ptot = total power, VTp = VT primary, VTs = VT secondary, CTp = CT
primary, CTs = CT secondary and PF = power factor.

Example calculations
This example calculation shows how to calculate power, pulse constants and
maximum pulse frequency, and how to determine a pulse constant that reduces
the maximum pulse frequency.
A balanced 3-phase Wye system uses 480:120 volt VTs and 120:5 amp CTs. The
signals at the secondary side are 119 volts line-to-neutral and 5.31 amps, with a
power factor of 0.85. The desired pulse output frequency is 20 Hz (20 pulses per
second).
1. Calculate the typical total output power (Ptot):
3. At full load (120% of nominal current = 6 A) and power factor (PF = 1),
calculate the maximum total output power (Pmax):

2. Check the new maximum pulse frequency against the limits for the LED and
pulse outputs:
• 17.1 Hz ≤ LED maximum pulse frequency (35 Hz)
• 17.1 Hz ≤ pulse output maximum frequency (20 Hz)
As expected, changing K to a value below Kmax allows you to use the pulse
output for energy pulsing.
3. Set the new pulse constant (K) on your meter.

Power flow
Positive real power P(+) flows from the power source to the load. Negative real
power P(-) flows from the load to the power source.
An ideal, purely resistive load has no reactive components, so its power factor is
one (PF = 1, or unity power factor). Inductive or capacitive loads introduce a
reactive power (Q) component to the circuit which causes the PF to become
closer to zero.
True PF
The meter supports true power factor values:
• True power factor includes harmonic content.

UNINTENDED OPERATION
Do not use this device for critical control or protection applications where human
or equipment safety relies on the operation of the control circuit.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or
equipment damage.

EasyLogic™ PM1130H Conzerv™ EM6438H Command interface
• If the meter shows a nonzero number, you own the semaphore. Semaphore is
provided once until it is released or has been inactive for approximately 4
minutes. Once you have the semaphore, subsequent reads of the semaphore
register will return zero until you release the semaphore or it times out.
To send a meter command using the protected command interface:
1. Read the semaphore register and record the meter response. This is your
semaphore.
2. Build the packet to be written to the command block.
3. Write the packet as a Modbus block write (enter the command number,
semaphore, and parameters at the same time).

5. Write the semaphore back to the semaphore register to release it for another
master to use.
