7.Electricity Partition
7.1 electricity partition introduction
7.1.1 Electricity partition summary
This electricity partition algorithm is Midea patented technology.

M‐interface gateway periodically with 30 seconds collects indoor and outdoor, indoor units
and ammeter’s data through M‐net connector. Every hour (120 sampling periods) take
refrigerant system as a unit to configure the electricity consumed by outdoor unit, and report
the result documents to the IMM software. IMM software will gather the electricity documents
and create the user report.
7.1.2 Partition factor
Indoor units partition factor calculation:

M‐INTERFACE gateway will sum 120 “capacity requirements” of a indoor unit in the
refrigerant system, and then divide the summation of all the indoor units’ “capacity
requirements” of refrigerant system to get this unit partition factor β.
Note: indoor unit “capacity requirement” is calculated by setting temperature, ambient
temperature, mode and horsepower etc. parameters, the actual display to be electrical
expansion valve opening etc.
7.1.3 Electricity partition
M‐INTERFACE gateway will divide the outdoor unit consumed electricity gathered by every
hour to be: outdoor unit operating electricity P1, outdoor unit standby electricity P2 and
outdoor unit abnormal electricity P3. The partition factor β multiply by P1 to get the indoor unit
operating electricity X, P2 divide indoor unit quantity to get the indoor unit operating electricity
Y. M‐INTERFACE gateway will turn X, Y, P1, P2, P3 to be electricity documents then upload to
IMM software.
7.1.4 Electricity settlement
IMM software will gather the received electricity documents, and accord to the user
selection to produce report of electricity price output in the specified hour.
Settlement 1: IMM software gathered electricity documents, add the indoor unit’s X, Y and
all the outdoor unit abnormal electricity P3, and this summation divide the effective indoor unit
quantity get the value, then to get the consumed electricity W.
—71—
Settlement 2: IMM software gathered electricity documents, add all indoor units’ X to get
indoor unit operating electricity W1; all the outdoor unit standby electricity P2 and normal
electricity P3’s summation divide the effective indoor unit quantity get the indoor unit
maintenance electricity W2.
7.1.5 Method of settlement
Settlement 1 can get the indoor unit consumed electricity W, even if the indoor unit didn’t
operate, W can not be 0. For indoor unit standby electricity Y can not be 0.
Settlement 2 can get the indoor unit operating electricity W1 and maintenance electricity
W2. If indoor unit didn’t operate then W1 is 0. W2 can get through “Air‐conditioner
maintenance cost”.
7.2 Factors affect the electricity partition error
7.2.1 Ammeter sampling error
Ammeter precision has different class. Class 1 is 1% error. Class 2 is 2% error.
7.2.2 Calculation error
Electricity partition calculation error is 1%, that’s two decimal places.
7.2.3 Safeguard system under abnormal situations
When the device can not collect the data for power‐off, disconnected, safeguard system is
necessary to avoid electricity loss or serious phenomenon. At that time the reasonableness of
electricity partition will be decreased. It should be handled the device error as soon as possible. If
the following situations came out, the safeguard system will be operated:
1、When total indoor unit quantity of a refrigerant system were 1~5 sets, and disconnected
indoor units in an hour were more than 1 set, classify P1 as P3 electricity;
2、When total indoor unit quantity of a refrigerant system were 6~10 sets, and disconnected
indoor units in an hour were more than 2 sets, classify P1 as P3 electricity;
3 、 When total indoor unit quantity of a refrigerant system were 11~64 sets, and
disconnected indoor units in an hour were more than 3 sets, classify P1 as P3 electricity;
4、When there has produced P1 electricity, but total indoor unit capacity requirements in an
hour were zero, classify P1 as P3 electricity;
5、When it changed the ammeter and the first readings of changed ammeter was larger than
the readings of the former ammeter, then it will produce P3 electricity;
Increase the reasonableness of electricity partition under this situation is: calculate the electricity
report before changing the ammeter and use a new day (begin with 00:00) as the start time of
—72—
the next calculation.

6、When the outdoor unit was disconnected, classify the produced electricity during the
disconnected period as P3 electricity;
7、When the ammeter was disconnected, classify the produced electricity during the
disconnected period as P3 electricity;
8、When the M‐INTERFACE gateway powered off (disconnected, switchboard power‐off error
etc.), classify the produced electricity during this period as P3 electricity;
9、When the M‐INTERFACE gateway system time was synchronized back to the past, as the
follow display, supposed M‐INTERFACE gateway was operating till 19:00, at this time point,
synchronized the M‐INTERFACE gateway system time back to 18:00, and continued to operate 2
hours to the current time 20:00. And the timestamp between 18:00~19:00 will come out twice.
Under this situation, the electricity of the set back time will be lost.
Set back time
18:00 19:00 20:00

Time after synchronized Time during synchronizing operation Current time Timer shaft
If came out this situation, it needs to find out the electricity readings records of 19:00 and 20:00
in IMM database and manual share the electricity for indoor units to avoid lose.
10、The ammeter readings continue to change, produce P4 electricity. Communication
between outdoor unit and ammeter met the ammeter communication rules, the correctness of
the data transmission was protective, but under some disturbed or ammeter error situations,
sampled ammeter readings may be changed. For low down the correctness of electricity partition,
filter the ammeter changed situation, and the filtering value P4 will be recorded in the electricity
document but not in electricity partition.
11、Electricity produced during IMM WEB software upgrade period (about 8 minutes) will be
classified as P3 electricity.
Note:
P3 electricity will be shared to indoor units according to the effective indoor unit quantity;
Generally it should not use an old ammeter for changing;
When the customer reads ammeter and finds out the ammeter reading is abnormal, that
may cause by ammeter readings changed, it needs to correct the ammeter.
7.3 indoor unit power consumption estimation
7.3.1 Estimation method
The fan and electrical heater of the indoor unit will consume electricity. The consumed
electricity of indoor unit is the sum of the fan and E‐heater’s consumed electricity. Fan consumed
electricity: fan’s operating hour multiply the fan’s rated power.
E‐heater consumed electricity: electrical heater’s operating hour multiply the electrical
heater’s rated power.
—73—
7.3.2 Estimation error
The fan and electrical heater might be outputted not as the rated power during operating
process, e.g.: AC fan may be high/med/low three speeds. This situation will cause error. The
estimation value will be more than the actual value. If can not accept this error, then can choose
to install the ammeter at the indoor unit power supply side.
7.4 user report selection
After install the IMM software, through administer rights to select user report way:
1、Output/not output maintenance cost
2、Estimate/not estimate indoor unit consumed electricity
Note:
If the customer does not accept the non‐operating air‐conditioner might cause output cost,
it’s suggested that select “Output maintenance cost”;
If the customer does not accept the error caused by indoor unit consumed electricity
estimation, it’s suggested that select not estimate indoor unit consumed electricity, and install
the ammeter at the indoor unit power supply side.
7.5 public air‐conditioner and idle air‐conditioner setting
IMM software can divide the air‐conditioners to be public air‐conditioner and idle
air‐conditioner, this function is suitable for the situations of commercial office building or
apartment‐style hotel. The setting interface is as follow:
—74—
IMM software will calculate the consumed electricity of public and idle air‐conditioner, and
share to the effective indoor units.
7.6 Full heat exchanger and new fan insert
Under the full heat‐exchanger and new fan requirements situations, these two
air‐conditioners can not mix with V4+ indoor units to connect into the refrigerant system. Under
auto topology mode, needs to separate insert to M‐net indoor unit communication connector;
under manual topology mode, needs to establish a single refrigerant system in CSV document
(refer to 8.1).
7.7 Electricity partition situation
Under the following situations, will share electricity:

1、 Indoor unit standby.
2、 Indoor unit operates the fan, the report display the device operating time not less than 0,
but still has cost.
3、 Outdoor unit produces abnormal electricity; at this time, no matter what modes the indoor
unit operates, the abnormal electricity will be shared.
7.8 Precautions
1. Midea electricity partition method is not through the calculation tools, but through collecting
the data and analysis and calculate the data, then get the result, so this cost report is only for
reference, and should not use for commercial calculation basis.
2. If M‐INTERFACE gateway’s topology structure changes (air‐conditioner quantity change), then
use the changing time as separate point to print the report separately.
3. Indoor unit operation time specification
E.g.: 10 sets indoor units, one indoor unit operation time is not 0, other units are 0(select not
estimate indoor unit electricity), why shares the electricity?
Reason: Operate the fan, or reach the setting temperature, indoor unit operation time will not be
0, but at that time the indoor unit status is the same with other standby indoor units, so share
the electricity.
8.Appendix
8.1 Topology documents specification
